How many numbers can be rounded to 88 500 to the nearest hundreds?

Answer 1

100

Answer 2

To the nearest 100, one hundred whole numbers will round - half of them up, half of them down.

To the nearest 100, the numbers 88,500 ± (100 ÷ 2) will round to 88,500; except that numbers exactly half way round up, so: 88,500 - 50 ≤ number < 88,500 + 50 will round to 88,500 to the nearest 100, ie 88450 ≤ number <88,550, thus the hundred whole numbers:

88 450, 88 451, 88 452, ..., 88 499, 88 500, 88 501, ..., 88 548, 88 549
