The image shows the multiplication of \( 17 \times 27 \), followed by a request to round both numbers before multiplying. 

To solve this:

1. Round 17 to the nearest ten: \( 17 \) rounds to \( 20 \).
2. Round 27 to the nearest ten: \( 27 \) rounds to \( 30 \).

Now, multiply the rounded numbers:
\[
20 \times 30 = 600
\]

So, \( 17 \times 27 \) rounds to \( 20 \times 30 = 600 \).

Would you like more details on the rounding process or multiplication?

Here are five related questions to expand this concept:

1. What is the exact product of \( 17 \times 27 \) without rounding?
2. How would the product change if 17 and 27 were rounded to the nearest multiple of 5 instead of 10?
3. Why is rounding useful in quick estimations?
4. How do different rounding methods (e.g., rounding up vs. rounding down) affect the final result?
5. Can you calculate the difference between the rounded product and the exact product?

**Tip:** Rounding to the nearest ten is commonly used for estimation when precision is not crucial, making calculations easier.
