Answer 1

2,450

Answer 2

2500

Answer 3

When rounding a number to the nearest 100, you look at the digit in the hundreds place. In this case, the hundreds digit is 4. Since the digit in the tens place is 5 or greater, you round up the hundreds digit by adding 1. Therefore, 2451 rounded to the nearest 100 is 2500.

Answer 4

The rule when rounding off numbers is "If the first figure to be discarded is 5 or more then the previous figure is increased by 1".

When rounding 2451 to the nearest hundred then the first figure to be discarded is 5 therefore the previous figure (the one in front of 5 which is 4 is increased by 1)

So 2451 becomes 2500 when rounded to the nearest hundred.
