Note that you are estimating.

Estimate each to the nearest whole number

Note that when rounding, look at the digit to the right of the one you want to round to. If the digit is 5 or greater round up, if 4 and lower, round down.

1.537 rounded to the nearest whole number is 2

2 x 242 = 484

484 is your answer

hope this helps
