Best Answer

Rounding is making an approximation of a number so it is easier to work with.

eg 1

9 ≈ 10 (≈ means approximately equal to)

53 ≈ 50

These two examples were rounded to the nearest whole number of 10.

eg 2

165 ≈ 200

545 ≈ 500

989 ≈ 1000

1378 ≈ 1400

These four examples where rounded to the nearest whole number of 100.
