Q: <font color=red> Estimate:  3004 x 5982 </font>


A:


First, round 3004 to the nearest thousand to get 3,000. Now roung 5,982 to the nearest thousand to get 6000



Now since 3 x 6 = 18, this means that 3,000 x 6,000 = 18,000,000



So 3004 x 5982 is roughly 18,000,000



Note: the true answer is 17,969,928
