Sometimes it is advantageous to express a value in round numbers. To round to a particular place, look at the digit immediately to the right of the one you want to round to, in this case, the hundreds place. If that digit is 4, 3, 2, 1 or 0, zero it and everything to the right of it out. If that digit is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, increase your target digit by one and zero everything to the right of it out. If your target digit is 9, it will become a zero and increase the digit to the left of it by one.

What is the answer to round 89658 to the nearest thousand?

89,658 rounded to the nearest thousand is 90,000 When you are rounding the rule is that if the 'bit less' than the target round (in this case 1000) is greater than or equal to 1/2 the target round (in this case 500) then you round up, and if it is less, then you round down.

How do you round 197.0853 to nearest tenth?

It depends on your rounding rules. The 'averaging rule' is this: 1) If the placement decimal value is 5 or higher, round up. 2) if the placement decimal value is 4 or lower, round down. For this rule, the above number will round to 197.1 If you use the 'truncation rule', you always drop ANY value at that point. For this rule, the above value will round to 197.0

What’s 10,000 rounded to the nearest thousand ( please answer)?

The rule for rounding to the nearest ten thousand is to look at the last four digits. If the last four digits are 5,000 or greater, then we round our ten thousands digit up, and if it is less than 5,000, then we keep our ten thousands digit the same. For example, 5,765 rounds up to 10,000. 43,567 rounds down to 40,000.


What is to the nearest 100 of 206250?

206,250 rounded up to the nearest 100 is 206,300 * * * * * That is, if you wish to introduce a systematic bias to rounding. If you blindly and ignorantly abide by the following the rule: Round down if the next digit is 1,2,3 or 4 Round up if the next digit is 5,6,7,8 or 9 the result is that you will round down less often than you round up. That introduces a systematic rounding bias. To avoid this, it is recommended rule is Round down if the next digit is 1,2,3 or 4 Round up if the next digit is 6,7,8 or 9 If the next digit is 5, round to an even digit. Therefore, 206250 is 206,200.
