What is 244 rounded to the nearest hundred?

Answer 1

200

Answer 2

200.

There are a couple of approaches you can take to such questions but they all mean the same thing. Perhaps here the easiest approach is:

1. Look at the two multiples of 100 either side of the number.

2. Determine which is closest to the number.

So:

1. The two multiples of 100 here are 200 and 300. These are either side of the number; 244 lies in between these.

2. It is closest to 200. It is 44 away from 200 and 56 away from 300.

Therefore it rounds to 200 as the nearest hundred.
