Ok so it seems that 7697 would actually be rounded to 8000 and and 225 would be rounded to 200.

Answer 12

They wanted us to round the first digit.

Answer 13

when you add 8000 by 200 its 8200

Answer 14

Yes, 8200 will be the product

Answer 15

so we dont need to round that? to 8000

Answer 16

No, they wanted those 2 numbers they gave you to be rounded and then added up

Answer 17

so the answer is just 8200?

Answer 18

Yes, all they asked was for the estimation and product. (rounded number added together)
