"Put a figure on" = nêu số liệu cụ thể về cái gì; xác định đúng giá cả/giá trị của cái gì.

Ví dụ
Northern Ireland First Minister Arlene Foster said she would "not put a figure" on how much money she will demand when she meets Boris Johnson in Belfast.

Mr Strachan subsequently told Tribune Business he was unable to put a figure on the total losses suffered by Bahamian vendors and others who provided services to the ill-fated festival, adding: “Fyre Festival had a considerable impact on so many Bahamians, not just in Exuma but also around The Bahamas.

Enormous sums of money will be spent, along with all that organisational and intellectual effort, just to make our lives about the same as they are now, just low-carbon. Ministers can’t even put a figure on how much this will all cost or if it is feasible (khả thi, có thể thực hiện được). No wonder the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders called the policy ‘a date without a plan’.
