Compatible numbers are pairs of numbers that are easy to compute with mentally, typically because they are rounded or simplified to make arithmetic calculations easier. For example, 50 and 20 are compatible numbers for estimating the sum of 48 and 19, as they round neatly to 50 and 20, making it simple to calculate that their sum is approximately 70. This concept is often used in estimation to quickly assess the reasonableness of an answer.
