Estimation is about rounding answers to the nearest whole or to a simple fraction. 11.6 is closer to 12 than it is to 11 so we can estimate that 11.6≈12
And .25 is closer to 0 than it is to .5 so we can estimate .25≈0
It also depends what place we are rounding to, we can say that .25 is close to .3 because we don't want to have a 0 value .25≈.3

Estimating decimals involves rounding numbers to simplify calculations. For instance, 11.6 is estimated as 12 and 0.25 can be approximated as either 0 or 0.3, depending on the context. Understanding how to round based on the nearest whole number or the required decimal place is key to effective estimation.
