Level 5-6 Numbers - Approximating
In KS3 Maths, you'll tackle problems with big numbers. Before diving into calculations, it's smart to have a rough idea of the answer, and that's where approximations come in.
Approximations give you a general sense of what the result might be. While you'll still do the actual calculations, dealing with rounded numbers makes things much easier, especially when they end in zeros.
