Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

68,283−47,849

The difference is just

20,434

Note when we say nearest ten thousand, we meant 10,000, so there should be a minimum of four zeros

So,

20,434 = 20,000

Since the last number converted is not up to 5, we will not add 1 to 2.

So the answer is 20,000

I hope this helps!!! cc sadiku
