Rounding off -5-290- to its greatest place i-e-thousands place - 5000-Rounding off -17-986- to its greatest place i-e-thousands place - 18-000-160-Hence- estimated sum - 5-000 - 18-000 - 23-000-

Estimate the following by rounding off each number nearest to its greatest place:
$$5,290 + 17,986$$

Rounding off $$5,290$$ to its greatest place i.e.
thousands place $$= 5000$$
Rounding off $$17,986$$ to its greatest place i.e.
thousands place $$= 18,000$$
Hence, estimated sum $$= 5,000 + 18,000 = 23,000$$
