Answer (1)
To solve this problem, you first identify the smallest addend and its highest place value. Then, you round both numbers to that same place value before adding them together.Step-by-Step Solution * Identify the addends: The two addends are 28,296 and 73,634. * Find the smallest addend: The smallest addend is 28,296. * Identify the highest place value of the smallest addend: The highest place value in 28,296 is the ten thousands place (the digit 2). * Round both addends to the ten thousands place: * 28,296 rounds up to 30,000 because the thousands digit (8) is 5 or greater. * 73,634 rounds down to 70,000 because the thousands digit (3) is less than 5. * Add the rounded numbers: * 30,000 + 70,000 = 100,000The final answer is 100,000.
