Answer:
Round it off
Create zeros.
So 199 becomes 200.
Round to an order of magnitude
Round a lot, to the nearest "power of ten".
So 218 becomes 100, and 2,180 becomes 1,000.
Slide the decimal point
Compact those zeros created by rounding.
So 200,000,000 becomes 2 x 108 (exponential notation).
Substitute a number you can remember
Instead of rounding, find a nearby number you can remember.
So 218 becomes 222, or 210, or 200, or something else easy.
