Rounding is closer because the amount added to one number is the same as the amount subtracted from the other number which makes the answer match exactly.
Not in this case.
Yes, when rounding to the nearest 10.

Rounding 670? Easy peasy lemon squeezy! If you want to round that bad boy to the nearest ten, it becomes 670. If you're feeling fancy and want to round it to the nearest hundred, it transforms into 700. Math can be a wild ride, but rounding is like the bumper lanes of bowling - it keeps things nice and tidy.
10000 because 8 is closer to 10 than 5 or 0
Not in this case.
the purpose of rounding numbers is that you can get closer to the actual answer
Compatible numbers would be easier. Rounding gives you 14 x 47. Compatible numbers could be 13 x 50 which would be closer to the actual product.
Rounding the weights to 10 lb and 60 lb gives an estimated total weight of 70 lb. Using compatible numbers by rounding to 9 lb and 60 lb, the estimated total weight is 69 lb. The estimate using compatible numbers (69 lb) is closer to the actual total weight of 71.6 lb.

Not necessarily. Take this example: 89 ÷ 44 The rounding rules are clear. 89 goes to 90, 44 goes to 40, 90 ÷ 40 = 2.25 Compatible numbers can be altered by the relationships between them. 89 is close to 90, 44 is close to 45, 90 and 45 have a relationship that is easy to compute. 90 ÷ 45 = 2 In this case, the estimate provided by compatible numbers is closer to the real total than the one provided by rounding.
Ah, a compatible fraction is like a good friend that gets along well with others. When you have compatible fractions, they have the same denominator, making it easier to add or subtract them. It's like painting a beautiful landscape with colors that blend harmoniously together. Just remember, when fractions are compatible, working with them becomes a joyful experience.
You can round it to the nearest 10: Its closer to 90 than it is to 100, so 90 is the answer. Or you can round it to the nearest 100, its closer to 100 than 0, so 100 is the answer
Yes, when rounding to the nearest 10.

It means that you find the closest whole number. For example, if you have the number 5.8, rounding it to a whole number gives you 6 - since no other whole number is closer to 5.8.More generally, it can mean rounding to some multiple of a certain number. For example, 549 rounded to the nearest 100 (i.e., to the nearest multiple of 100) gives you 500 - since no other multiple of 100 is closer to 549.
only if you're rounding to the nearest hundred. if you are, then yes it does since 287 is closer to 300 than it is to 200. however, if you are rounding to the nearest tenth, than it is 290 since it is closer to 290 than it is to 280.
