Ballpark guesses are rough estimations or approximations made without precise data or statistics. These are often used in contexts where exact numbers aren't available or necessary, but a general idea is needed to move forward with decisions. The term 'ballpark' originates from the concept of estimating something within a 'ballpark', i.e., a wide but useful range. It's a common practice in business, finance, and other fields where practical, quick decisions need to be made.
