Directions (1-5): What approximate value will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equations? 5734.96 – 3624 .03 - 1512.86 = ? – 3611.43

Approximate the decimal values to their nearest integers to get the equation 5735 - 3624 - 1513 = ? - 3611. Solving the left side, 5735 - 3624 gives 2111, and subtracting 1513 from 2111 gives 598. Adding 3611 to both sides results in 598 + 3611, which equals 4209; therefore, the closest approximate value is 4210. The result is 4210.
