Oh, dude, you're really making me work for it, huh? So, like, when you round 142 to the nearest hundreds, it's 100. Yeah, I know, it's mind-blowing stuff. Like, who even needs that extra 42 hanging around, right?
Well, darling, 142 rounded to the nearest hundreds is 100. Because, sweetie, when you look at that 1 in the hundreds place, it's less than 5 so it doesn't quite make it to 200. So, there you have it, 142 rounded to the nearest hundreds is 100.
When rounding 142 to the nearest hundred, you look at the digit in the tens place, which is 4. Since 4 is less than 5, you round down. Therefore, 142 rounded to the nearest hundred is 100.
