to round mixed numbers to the nearest half...........
1st you just leave the whole number alone. then on the fraction you decide if it rounds to 0 1/2 or 1 then what ever answer you get you put it with the whole number.
Example: 3 5/8
5/8= 1/2 because 4 is half of 8 and 5 is the closest you can get to 8
so then you take that 1/2 and put it with the 3. so then your answer will be
3 1/2
Hope this helps!! :)

What are 2 mixed numbers such that when you estimate their sum by rounding to the nearest whole number you get a different estimate than when you round to the nearest half?
1 and 1/3 + 1 and 1/3.Rounded to the nearest whole and added together: give 1 + 1 = 2Rounded to the nearest half and added together: give 1.5 + 1.5 = 3
Does one third round to 0 or to one half?
Well, honey, when you're dealing with fractions, one third doesn't round to 0 or one half. One third is closer to zero than it is to one half, but it's still one third. So, no need to round it off, just keep it as one third and call it a day.

What is the biggest number that rounds to 8000 to the nearest thousand?
When rounding to the nearest thousand, half round up and half round down.Half of 1000 is 500 → numbers that are 8000 ± 500, that is 7500 to 8500 will round to 8000 to the nearest 1000.However, numbers half way by convention round up and 8500 is half way between 8000 & 9000 and so would round up to 9000.Thus numbers greater than or equal to 7500 and less than 8500 will round to 8000 to the nearest 1000.Therefore the largest whole number that will round to 8000 to the nearest 1000 is 8499.
When rounding to the nearest thousand what is the greatest number that rounds to 5000?
Half of 1000 is 500, so numbers in the range 5000 ± 500 round to 5000 to the nearest 1000 EXCEPT that numbers exactly half way round up. ie numbers greater than or equal to 5000 - 500 = 4500 and less than 5000 + 500 = 5500 will round to 5000 to the nearest 1000. So the largest whole number that rounds to 5000 to the nearest 1000 is 5500 - 1 = 5499.
