1. India drew with Pakistan in a hockey match watched by 51,000 spectators
in the stadium and 40 million television viewers world wide.
2. Approximately, 2000 people were killed and more than 50000 injured in a
cyclonic storm in coastal areas of India and Bangladesh,
3. Over 13 million passengers are carried over 63,000 kilometre route of
railway track every day.
Can we say that there were exactly as many people as the numbers quoted
in these news items? For example,
In (1), were there exactly 51,000 spectators in the stadium? or did exactly
40 million viewers watched the match on television?
Obviously, not. The word approximately itself
shows that the number of people were near about these
numbers. Clearly, 51,000 could be 50,800 or 51,300
but not 70,000. Similarly, 40 million implies much
more than 39 million but quite less than 41 million
but certainly not 50 million.
