Assumptions1. The first company's buses make480,000 trips. The second company's buses make44,100 trips3. The total number of trips is the sum of the trips made by both companies
STEP 2
We can find the total number of trips by adding the trips made by the first company and the second company.
STEP 3
Now, plug in the given values for the trips made by the first company and the second company to calculate the total trips.
STEP 4
Calculate the total number of trips.
The two companies' buses make524,100 trips.
STEP 5
For the second question, we are asked to estimate the sum of319,587 and167,259. We can do this by rounding each number to the nearest ten thousand and then adding them together.
STEP 6
Calculate the estimated sum.
STEP 7
For the third question, we are asked to estimate the sum of9,114 and5,697. We can do this by rounding each number to the nearest thousand and then adding them together.
