Let's solve each part of this addition worksheet step by step. The task asks you to:
1.
Estimate the answer by rounding each number to the nearest ten.
2. Then,
solve the actual addition to check your estimate.

🔹 Rounding Rules:
- If the ones digit is
5 or more, round
up.
- If the ones digit is
less than 5, round
down.
---
✔ a. 86 + 13
-
86 → 90 (since 6 ≥ 5, round up)
-
13 → 10 (since 3 < 5, round down)
-
Estimated sum: 90 + 10 =
100
Now solve the actual problem:
-
86 + 13 = 99
✔ Check: Estimate (100) is close to actual (99)
---
✔ b. 32 + 61
-
32 → 30 (2 < 5, round down)
-
61 → 60 (1 < 5, round down)
-
Estimated sum: 30 + 60 =
90
Actual sum:
-
32 + 61 = 93
✔ Check: Estimate (90) is close to actual (93)
---
✔ c. 49 + 37
-
49 → 50 (9 ≥ 5, round up)
-
37 → 40 (7 ≥ 5, round up)
-
Estimated sum: 50 + 40 =
90
Actual sum:
-
49 + 37 = 86
✔ Check: Estimate (90) is close to actual (86)
---
✔ d. 64 + 22
-
64 → 60 (4 < 5, round down)
-
22 → 20 (2 < 5, round down)
-
Estimated sum: 60 + 20 =
80
Actual sum:
-
64 + 22 = 86
✔ Check: Estimate (80) is close to actual (86)
---
✔ e. 91 + 59
-
91 → 90 (1 < 5, round down)
-
59 → 60 (9 ≥ 5, round up)
-
Estimated sum: 90 + 60 =
150
Actual sum:
-
91 + 59 = 150
✔ Check: Estimate (150) matches actual (150) perfectly!
---
✔ f. 28 + 92
-
28 → 30 (8 ≥ 5, round up)
-
92 → 90 (2 < 5, round down)
-
Estimated sum: 30 + 90 =
120
Actual sum:
-
28 + 92 = 120
✔ Check: Estimate (120) matches actual (120) perfectly!

✔ Final Answers:
| Problem | Rounded Numbers | Estimated Sum | Actual Sum |
|--------|------------------|----------------|------------|
| a. | 90 + 10 | 100 | 99 |
| b. | 30 + 60 | 90 | 93 |
| c. | 50 + 40 | 90 | 86 |
| d. | 60 + 20 | 80 | 86 |
| e. | 90 + 60 | 150 | 150 |
| f. | 30 + 90 | 120 | 120 |

🎄 Summary:
You can now fill in the blanks on the worksheet with these rounded values and sums.
For example:
> a. 86 round to
90
> + 13 round to
10
>
100
> Actual: 86 + 13 =
99
Repeat similarly for others.
