How do you round numbers when estimating?

When estimating, round each number to one that is simple to calculate with, such as to the nearest ten or hundred. This makes mental maths faster and easier.

Rounding to one decimal place means keeping only one digit after the decimal point. For example, 6.47 rounded to one decimal place becomes 6.5.
