-- The tens on each side of it are . . . 10 (below it) and 20 (above it).

-- 17 is 7 bigger than 10, but only 3 smaller than 20.

-- So 20 is the nearest one.

Well, darling, to round 17 to the nearest ten, you look at the digit in the tens place, which is 1. Since 1 is less than 5, you keep the tens digit the same and change all the digits to the right to zeros. So, 17 rounded to the nearest ten is 20. Hope that clears things up for you, sugar!
