Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’re rounding to the
nearest hundred.
How to round to the nearest hundred:
- Look at the
tens digit (the second digit from the right).
- If the tens digit is
5 or more, round
up.
- If the tens digit is
4 or less, round
down.
- When you round, change the tens and ones digits to zero.
