The answer is 790.
The first question we must answer is, "which digit in this number is in the tens column?"
In 789, the digit "8" is in the tens column.
We know this because working from right to left (from the left of the decimal point) it is in the second column ("9" is in the first, "7" in the third). We do not always write a decimal point for a number such as this but if it makes it any easier for you then think of this number as being 789.0.
Now to round this digit we ask, "is the digit to its immediate right higher than or equal to 5?"
If it is then we round up else we round down (i.e. do not change the digit).
In this case, "9" is higher than "5" so we must round up. The number 789 becomes 790 (to the nearest ten). Please note that as we have rounded to the nearest 10, we must make the last digit 0 after rounding.
Oh, dude, you're really making me do math right now? Okay, fine. So, 789 rounded to the nearest 10 is 790. Like, it's pretty simple, just add 1 to the last digit because 9 is closer to 10 than it is to 0. But seriously, math? Can we talk about something more fun like Pizza toppings or something?
hahaha you thought i was going to give you the answer you funny
Well honey, 789 rounded to the nearest 10 is 790. It's not rocket science, just bump that sucker up to the next 10 and call it a day. Now go forth and conquer with your newfound knowledge.
