Grade 5 learners deepen rounding fluency in this worksheet, working with larger whole numbers up to four digits and decimal rounding to the nearest whole number. Front-end estimation practice extends into three-digit subtraction problems. Sentence correction items spotlight common rounding errors so students learn to self-check their work. Money contexts reinforce realistic application of estimation in everyday Grade 5 classroom and home mathematics situations and homework.
