I dont really think it does...but here is a way to look at those kinds of problems.

Problem: Round 285 to the nearest tens.

Work: Look at the tens place. The 8 is in the tens place, correct? Yes. Underline it. Then draw a little arrow underneath the underline to the 5, which is the number to the right of the 8. Look at that number. Is it 5 or over? Yes it is. Round up one. This means make the 8 a 9, and then all the rest of the numbers will become a 0.
