Well, isn't that a happy little question! When we round 16 to the nearest ten, we see that it's closest to 20. Just like adding a few more trees to our painting to make it just right, rounding helps us simplify numbers for easier understanding. Keep up the great work and keep painting those numbers with joy!
When rounding a number to the nearest ten, you look at the digit in the ones place. If the ones digit is 5 or greater, you round up; if it is 4 or less, you round down. In this case, 16 has a ones digit of 6, so you round up to the nearest ten, which is 20.
Well, honey, 16 rounded to the nearest ten is 20. It's not rocket science, just basic math. So, there you have it, 16 gets a makeover and becomes 20 when you round it up.
