There are a variety of strategies that people use for developing this ability. For instance, while adding 1821,695 and 250, a person could estimate it mentally

i) by rounding off the numbers and computing with these numbers:

1800+700+200 or1800+700+300

ii) by considering the leftmost digits to form a rough estimate, and then adjusting this estimate by considering the other digits:

first 1000 + 660 + 200, and then add 800 + 100 + 50.
