    Ignore it because the answer to 51*37 is 1,887 not 1,500 which means that they are reducing it not rounding it.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    It is quite reasonable to round to the nearest ten to estimate an answer.

    However, Lenore made a mistake in the rounding.

    Rounded to the nearest ten, 37 ≈40. So,

    51 * 37 ≈ 50 * 40 = 2000.

    Her estimate of 1500 was wrong.
