Answer:
8000
Step-by-step explanation:
rounding off is tricky, lets make it simple.
While rounding off for nearest 1000 look for the digit at right of 1000th place.
In 12,869 the digit at right of 2(the 1000th place) is 8 which is >5 so, add 1 to 1000th place i.e. 2 and make all the smaller digits zero i.e. 13,000.
similarly for 4,578 look for right side of 4(1000th place) which is =5 so, add 1 to 1000th place i.e. 4 and make all smaller digits zero i.e. 5,000.
Subtraction, 13,000-5,000=8,000
