Let's start with the places. 4 is in the ten-thousands place, 7 is in the thousands place, 6 is in the hundreds place, 2 is in the tens place, and 4 is in the ones place.

We want to round to the thousands, 7, so we need to look at the digit just to the right, the 6. If the number is 5 or greater you round up to 8. If it is less than 5, we stay at 7. 6 is greater than 5, so we round up to 8. Leave everything to the left of the 7 in the original number the same and make everything to the right 0. So your final answer is 48,000.
