    estimated sales on Wednesday is 19000 pounds.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    On Monday, he sold 25196 pounds. Estimated to the nearest thousand that is 25000 pounds.

    On Tuesday, he sold 18023 pounds. Estimated to the nearest thousand, that is 18000 pounds

    Wednesday's sales is unknown. We designate as x

    All in all he sold 62409. Estimated to the nearest thousand, that is 62000

    The sales on Monday, plus sales on Tuesday, plus sales on Wednesday, must all sum up to the total sales.

    25000 + 18000 + x = 62000

    43000 + x = 62000

    x = 62000 - 43000 = 19000

    therefore estimated sales on Wednesday is 19000 pounds.
