Smallest: 550000
Largest: 650000
Some statistically naive people will argue that 650000 would be rounded up to 700000. What they do not realise is that the process of always rounding up 5 introduces a bias.
This is because, if you do that, you
do not round for 0.
round down for 1, 2, 3 and 4
round up for 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9
So there is 10% more rounding up than down (5/10 up against 4/10 down). That is introducing an upward bias. The recommended solution is to round the other digits as before but to round 5 so that the last "surviving" digit is even.

When rounding 800,000 to the nearest hundred thousand, it remains 800,000, as it is already at that value. The largest number that rounds to 800,000 is 849,999, and the smallest number that rounds to 800,000 is 750,000.

When rounding 800,000 to the nearest hundred thousand, it remains 800,000, as it is already at that value. The largest number that rounds to 800,000 is 849,999, and the smallest number that rounds to 800,000 is 750,000.
The largest number that round to 0 when when rounding to the nearest hundred (100) is 49.The smallest would be 1 if we consider whole numbers only.
