Standard rounding of 468 to the nearest thousandth: 0

(because 468 is smaller than 500. If it were bigger or equal to 500, then you'd need to round up).

There are several other rounding techniques, for example in physics, it is often usual to round in a way that the relative error would be minimized (in that case, the answer would be 1000). Or stochastical rounding would non-deterministically either give 0 or 1000 (where 0 would have a chance of 46.8%, i.e. slightly smaller than the chance for 1000). But most probably the answer you're looking for is 0.

All of that may be true to the nearest thousand. 468 is already rounded to the nearest thousandth, but may be written as 468.000
