Best Answer

When rounding to the nearest whatever, half the number round up and half round down.

→ the numbers that round to 170000 to the nearest 10000 are 170000 ± (10000 ÷ 2) = 170000 ± 5000

However, if a number is exactly half way, the convention is to round them up, so the numbers in the range:

170000 - 5000 ≤ number < 170000 + 5000

→ 165000 ≤ number < 175000

will round to 170000 to the nearest 10000

→ smallest number is 165000

→ biggest [whole] number is 175000 - 1 = 174999
