That's not a textbook that is a picture that could easily be either doctored or a typo.
The picture isn't even saying what you claimed, nor is it wrong...

I don't care where it's from (it could absolutely be from a textbook or workbook provided with the textbook), when people talk about common core math, this is an example of it. Not all public schools are using common core curriculum right now, but if you look into what common core math contains it's a lot of stuff like this.

But this isn't even wrong(aside from the typos)... It's called front end estimation. Just because you don't understand it does not mean it should not be taught.
