The answer to this question is no.

When you multiply 33 and 917, you get 30,261, which is far greater than 2,750. Therefore making 2,750 an unreasonable answer.

I hope this helps!

No.

Rounded to 1 significant digit (as appropriate for estimating), the problem becomes

... 900 × 30 = 27,000

The numbers have a total of 3 zeros, so their product will have 3 zeros. The offered result is off by a factor of more than 10.
