Approximately the other way (6)
I believe the answer is:
around
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'approximately' is the first definition.
('around' can be a synonym of 'approximately')
'the other way' is the second definition.
(Other definitions for around that I've seen before include "On every side" , "More or less" , "On all sides or near" , "In the area of" , "Here and there; encircling" .)
