Whatever place you need to round a number to,
-- look at the single digit after that place (to the right of it).
-- If the digit is 4 or less, leave the place digit alone.
-- If the digit is 5 or more, add ' 1 ' to the place digit.
-- Chgange everything after the place digit to zero.
Example:
8,732 to the nearest thousand.
-- What's in the thousand's place now ? It's ' 8 '.
-- What's the next digit after the ' 8 ' ? It's a ' 7 '.
-- Is that 4 or less ? No.
-- Is it 5 or more ? Yes. OK. Then change the ' 8 ' to ' 9 ',
and make everything after it zero.
Now you have 9,000 . That's the even thousand that's nearest to 8,732 .

Can you round 2452 to the nearest thousand?
yes i can ! 2000 because you only round up when you have half of the number your rounding to, or more. e.g. As you're rounding to the nearest 1000, you need a number with 500 or more to round up e.g 2500. As 425 isn't = or more than 500, you round down.
