The rule when rounding off numbers is "If the first figure to be discarded is 5 or more then the previous figure is increased by 1".

Regard the number under consideration as 059. As '5' is the first figure to be discarded and this is 5 (or more), then the previous figure (0) is increased by 1.

59 rounded to the nearest hundred is 100.

Well, isn't that a happy little question! When we round 59 to the nearest hundred, we see that it is closer to 0 than 100, so it rounds down to 0. Remember, there are no mistakes in rounding, just happy little accidents!

When rounding 59 to the nearest hundred, you look at the digit in the tens place, which is 5. Since 5 is greater than or equal to 5, you would round up to the next hundred. Therefore, 59 rounded to the nearest hundred is 100.

Well, darling, 59 rounded to the nearest hundred is still 0. Why? Because you asked for the nearest hundred, not the nearest ten or thousand. So, in this case, 59 stays put like a stubborn mule.
