How do you estimate 179?

The front end estimate is 200. But estimating a single number, in isolation and without context, is a complete waste of time. It all comes down to the context of what needs to be done with the number.

If I had to add 179 to 1 trillion, I would estimate it as 0.
If I had to add 179 to 0.0000000001, I would use the number as given, or possibly the front end estimate. If I had to divide it by 10, I would estimate it as 180, because 180/10 = 18. If I had to divide it by 25, I would estimate it as 175, because 175/25 = 7.
