Estimating Sum Calculator

Estimate a sum by rounding each entered value to an explicit place before adding.

Enter values

Enter values and calculate.

Method

Each decimal is rounded independently using exact decimal strings and halfway-away-from-zero rounding. The rounded values are then added; the exact sum is secondary.

Worked example

237, 461, and 128 round to 200, 500, and 100 at the nearest hundred, for an estimated sum of 800.

Important limitation

This is an estimate from individually rounded values. It is intentionally distinct from exact list addition and from rounding one value.
