Answer:
1). in the ballpark. If someone or something is in the ballpark, their ideas, actions, or estimates are approximately right, although they are not exactly right. Note: A ballpark is a park or stadium where baseball is played.
2). A ballpark figure is a rough or approximate number (guesstimate) to give a general idea of something, like a rough estimate for a cost, etc.
Meaning
If you give a ballpark figure or a ballpark estimate, you give a number which you think is fairly close to the actual one.
For example
- We don't know the exact cost, but a ballpark figure would be around six million dollars.
- I know you can't tell me exactly when it'll be finished, but can you give me a ballpark estimate?
