A Correct answer
Explanation

We have 60000 × x = 624898 × 99. So x = (624898 × 99) ÷ 60000. Approximate: 624898 ≈ 625000. Then 625000 × 99 = 625000 × (100 - 1) = 62,500,000 - 625,000 = 61,875,000. Now 61,875,000 ÷ 60,000 = 1031.25. Looking at options, 1030 is closest. The question asks for approximate value, so 1030 is correct.
