Close but inexact estimate
a value or answer that is almost right, but not exact
वापर नमुना:
an approximation of [a number/amount/value]; an approximation to [something]; a rough/close approximation
सामान्य चूक:
Use approximation of or approximation to, not usually approximation about. Do not use it when you need an exact value.
समानार्थी शब्द
estimate (more common and general; often about numbers or amounts)
|
rough estimate (emphasizes that the value is not very precise)
|
ballpark figure (informal; mainly for approximate numbers, costs, or amounts)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
exact value (the precise value rather than a near one)
|
precise figure (a specific and accurate number)

उदाहरणे
- The figure of 10,000 is only an approximation, not an official count.
- Can you give me a rough approximation of the total cost?
- These measurements are approximations because the equipment is not perfectly accurate.
शिकणाऱ्यांसाठी उदाहरणे

Similar but not exact version
something that is like another thing, but not exactly the same
वापर नमुना:
an approximation of/to [something]; a close/good/poor approximation
सामान्य चूक:
This meaning is about similarity, not necessarily about calculating a number.
समानार्थी शब्द
imitation (suggests copying and may imply something less authentic)
|
likeness (emphasizes general or visual similarity)
|
substitute (something used in place of the real thing)
|
version (a neutral word for a particular form of something)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
original (the real thing rather than a similar replacement)
|
exact match (something that is completely the same in the relevant way)

Simplified mathematical substitute
in math or science, a simpler answer or model used because the exact one is difficult or unnecessary
वापर नमुना:
[adjective] approximation; approximation to/of [a function/model]; approximation method
सामान्य चूक:
In technical writing, an approximation is often a deliberate method, not a careless guess.
समानार्थी शब्द
simplification (emphasizes making a problem or model less complex)
|
model (a representation used to explain or predict something)
|
estimate (less technical and usually focused on a value)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
exact solution (a complete solution with no approximation)
|
exact calculation (a calculation that gives the precise result)
|
closed-form solution (technical; an exact expression using standard mathematical operations)

उदाहरणे
- The model uses a linear approximation to predict demand over a small range.
- Numerical approximations are often the only practical way to solve the equation.
- The small-angle approximation works well when the angle is very small.
शिकणाऱ्यांसाठी उदाहरणे
- We used an approximation because the exact answer was too hard.
