to round, look at the digit immediately after the place value you are rounding to; thus, if you are rounding to hundreds, you look to the tens column. the digit "4" is in the tens column. numbers 4 and under round down; numbers 5 and higher round up. therefore, 147.32 rounded to the nearest hundred is 100
To round you first need to take only the numbers at place value greater or equal to the place you intend to round to. In this case, 243.37 The next step is to look at the next place value on and figure out if we need to round up or not. If it is a 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 we need to round up. Otherwise, we can leave the answer as it is. In this case, the next digit is a 5, so we need to round up. Thus 243.3752 when rounded to the nearest hundredth is 243.38
When you round something you take the number to the nearest whole. For instance 140 rounded to the nearest hundred (the place value) will be 100 while 160 would become 200
