950 - 999 rounds to 1000; 750 - 799 rounds 800; and 650 - 699 rounds to 700
852 is approximate to1000 to the nearest thousand900 to the nearest hundred850 to the nearest ten

hundred-thousands ten-thousands thousands hundreds tens onesAbove is the order of the place values so for the number above it would go like this:3 4 5 9 8 2hundred-thousands ten-thousands thousands hundreds tens onesTo round to the nearest thousand means that we must decide what number should be in the thousands place (where the 5 currently is) and then make all numbers to the right of it (the hundreds, tens, and ones place) a 0.To determine what number should go in the thousands place, we need to look at the hundreds place. If the hundreds place contains a number that is greater than or equal to 5, we round up (meaning we add one to that value in the thousands place) otherwise, we round down (meaning we keep the number in the thousands place the same).In this problem, the hundreds place contains the number 9. Since this is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.To round up, we add 1 to the value in the thousands place.So, 5+1 = 6 --> Now the thousands place contains a six and all places to the right become zeros, so the final answer is:346000
You cannot round a number with a place value larger than the place value you seek to round it to. i.e. You cannot round thousands to hundreds, hundreds to tens, tens to ones, etc.
When your number is less than fifty.
22382 Inspect the 'hundreds number. If it is less than '5' then leave the thousands unaltered. If it is '5' or greter , then add one to the thousands. Hence in this cae , the hundreds number is '3' (which is less than '5'). So leave the thousands unaltered sat 22,000. The Answer!!!!!
600 rounds to1000 to the nearest thousand
30000
The thousands column is where 7 is the number to its right is the hundreds columns and it is 1, which is less than 5, so you round down to 7000
:Look at the digit in the hundreds position. It is a 5. That means the number will be rounded up. So 65000 will be the answer.
You round the number either to the nearest tens , hundreds , thousands , ten thousands , hundred thousand...Rounding is a process of selecting a number that is close to a given number but easier to work with.
