Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can estimate the value of an expression through rounding.

Show transcript
Rounding to 1 significant figure allows quick estimation with the magnitude of the estimation being close. The estimation will be closer to the true answer the less rounding you do. Estimating through rounding is meant to be quick and easy, taking too long defeats the purpose.
