Best Answer

1200 because the number is one thousand two hundred thirty six; for rounding it's generally accepted that anything "5" or higher is rounded up. So, look at the 'hundreds' in the number (236) and decide if you should round up or down. since 250 would result in rounding up, 236 rounds down to 200. So you get 1200. 1200. It is closer to 1200 than it is to 1300, hence why 1549 would round down to 1500 rather than up to 1550 then up again to 1600
