Well, honey, if you're looking to estimate 2760, you could round that bad boy to 3000. It's a nice, round number that's easy on the eyes and gets the job done. Just remember, estimating is like putting on a little black dress - it doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to work.

RossThe front end estimate is 3000. 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 2760 to 1 trillion, I would estimate it as 0.
If I had to add 2760 to 0.0000000001, I would use the number as given, or possibly the front end estimate. If I had to divide it by 9, I might estimate it as 2700, because 2700/9 = 300. If I had to divide it by 70, I would estimate it as 2800, because 2800/70 = 40.

What is the LCM of 3 15 23 40?
2760
What is an estimate for 282?
The front end estimate is 300. But estimating a single number, in isolation and without context, is a complete waste of time. If I had to add 282 to 1 trillion, I would estimate it as 0. If I had to add 282 to 0.0000000001, I would use the number as given - not use an estimate.
What are the common multiples of 23 and 40?
920, 1840, 2760 and so on.
What is the estimate of 467?
The front end estimate is 500. But estimating a single number, in isolation and without context is a complete waste of time. If I had to add 467 to 1 trillion, I would estimate it as 0. If I had to add 467 to 0.0000000001, I would use the number as given - not an estimate.
What is the estimation for 130?
The front end estimate is 100. But estimating a single number, in isolation and without context, is a complete waste of time. If I had to add 130 to 1 trillion, I would estimate it as 0. If I had to add 130 to 0.0000000001, I would use the number as given - not use an estimate. Also, if I had to divide it by 25, I would estimate it as 125 since 125/25 = 5, whereas if I had to divide it by 12 I would estimate it as 132 because 132/12 = 11.
