Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Estimating in maths is a way of approximately calculating an answer (getting a ‘rough answer’) to check its accuracy (the ‘right answer’). You shouldn’t need to use a calculator or any written methods when estimating, even with large numbers or decimal numbers.
