Do you remember your previous lesson on estimating
the sum?
We know that a certain problem is about ating when
the following key words appear about, estimate and

The process on estimating the difference is the same process
on estimating the sum. The process differs only on the operation
being used.
In estimating sums, we follow the steps below.
