On Monday a Farmer sold 25196 pounds of potatoes on tuesday he sold 18023pounds on Wednesday he sold some more potatoes in all he sold 62409 pound of potatoes about how many pounds of potatoes did the farmer sell on Wednesday estimate by rounding each value to the nearest thousand and then compute

estimated sales on Wednesday is 19000 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

On Monday, he sold 25196 pounds. Estimated to the nearest thousand that is 25000 pounds.

On Tuesday, he sold 18023 pounds. Estimated to the nearest thousand, that is 18000 pounds

Wednesday's sales is unknown. We designate as x

All in all he sold 62409. Estimated to the nearest thousand, that is 62000

The sales on Monday, plus sales on Tuesday, plus sales on Wednesday, must all sum up to the total sales.

25000 + 18000 + x = 62000

43000 + x = 62000

x = 62000 - 43000 = 19000

therefore estimated sales on Wednesday is 19000 pounds.
