(7268-2427) estimated to nearest hundred is :

Hint:
When rounding to the nearest hundred, look at the TENS DIGIT of the number.
If the tens digit is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, round it down to the previous hundred.
If the tens digit is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, round it up to the next hundred.

Complete step by step solution:
First let's solve the above terms, \[7268 - 2427 = 4841\].
Now while rounding numbers to the nearest hundred, look at the tenth digit of the number.
Here in 4841, it is 4.
So, we will round it down to the previous hundreds i.e. 4800.

\[(7268 - 2427)\] will give 4800 after rounding it to the nearest hundred.

Note:
Rounding means replacing a number with an approximate value that has a shorter, simpler or more explicit representation. While rounding up or down to the nearest hundred, the digit at TENS place and at ONES place will change to zero.
