The thousandths place is three places to the right of the decimal point. If the digit right after that (in the ten-thousandths place) is 4 or lower, round down, i.e. erase everything but the first three digits after the point. If it's 6 or higher, round up, i.e. add 1 to the third digit. If it's 5, ask your teacher.

If that answer is unsatisfying, you can either (1) round up all 5's, or (2) round down if there are only 0's after it. This is the SI method, used for almost all scientific purposes.

Write the fraction or mixed number as a decimal and then round to the nearest thousand?

To convert a fraction to a decimal, you divide the numerator by the denominator. For a mixed number, you add the whole number to the fraction before converting to a decimal. Once you have the decimal, round to the nearest thousandth by looking at the fourth decimal place. For example, if you have 3/4, it is 0.75 as a decimal, which rounds to 0.750 to the nearest thousandth.
