Answer:

190,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to estimate the sum of 137,638 plus 52,091.

First of all, we will round both digits to nearest ten thousands as:

[tex]137,638\approx 140,000[/tex]

[tex]52,091\approx 50,000[/tex]

Add both numbers:

[tex]140,000+50,000=190,000[/tex]

Therefore, our required sum would be 190,000.
