The way I really understand it, is that its estimating by the highest place value, not a very close estimation, but still around the number.

How do you calculate the order of magnitude estimate?
I don't have an answer yet!
How can you use estimation to determine whether you have placed the decimal point correctly in the product?
A reasonable estimate will give an indication of the order of magnitude of the number. The order of magnitude is determined by the decimal point and so knowing the order can help in placing it.
What is the magnitude estimate for 12.2 multiplied by 1.56?
The magnitude estimate for 12.2 multiplied by 1.56 is approximately 19.03.

What does OOM estimate mean?
OOM (Order of magnitude) estimate
What is the best order-of-magnitude estimate for 789000?
It is a million.
What is an order-of-magnitude estimate?
It is a bit confusing. An order of magnitude is a factor of 10, but an order of magnitude estimate is more like a factor of 3, or the square root of 10. In some cases it is simply a "ball park" estimate. For example if a company give an order of magnitude estimate for a major construction project of 10,000,000 dollars, it could be anywhere from 3 million to 30 million, but usually it means roughly 10,000,000, give or take a few million.
What is the best order of magnitude estimate for 29300?
It is tens of thousands.
What is the best order-of-magnitude estimate for 29300?
Tens of thousands.
How does estimation help you place the decimal point in a product correctly?
Estimating help determine the order of magnitude of the answer. It is, therefore, a simple matter to place the decimal point is such a way that the order of magnitude of the calculated answer matches that of the estimate.
What is the definition of a magnitude estimate?
Apparently a magnitude estimate is just a estimate just closer to the actual answer.

Their magnitude is ten thousands.
What is the magnitude estimate for 12.2 multiplied by 1.56?
The magnitude estimate for 12.2 multiplied by 1.56 is approximately 19.03.
What is the order of magnitude of the number 15?
The order of magnitude is "tens".
