Rounding numbers to the nearest ten thousand on a math worksheet.

You’ve uploaded a worksheet titled “Rounding Off”, which asks students to round each number to the nearest ten thousand.

## ✔ How to Round to the Nearest Ten Thousand:

1. Identify the ten thousands place — this is the 5th digit from the right (e.g., in 205,477 → the “0” in 205,477 is in the ten thousands place).
2. Look at the digit to the right (the thousands place).
3. If that digit is 5 or greater → round UP (add 1 to the ten thousands digit).
4. If that digit is 4 or less → round DOWN (keep the ten thousands digit the same).
5. Replace all digits to the right with zeros.

## 📝 Let’s solve each row:

We’ll go left to right, top to bottom.

---

Row 1:

- 205,477 → ten thousands digit = 0; next digit = 5 → round up → 210,000
- 199,574 → ten thousands digit = 9; next digit = 9 → round up → 199,574 → 200,000
- 75,699 → ten thousands digit = 7; next digit = 5 → round up → 80,000

---

Row 2:

- 69,785 → ten thousands = 6; next = 9 → round up → 70,000
- 74,065 → ten thousands = 7; next = 4 → round down → 70,000
- 94,158 → ten thousands = 9; next = 4 → round down → 90,000

---

Row 3:

- 5,000 → ten thousands = 0; next = 5 → round up → 10,000
- 14,912 → ten thousands = 1; next = 4 → round down → 10,000
- 122,601 → ten thousands = 2; next = 2 → round down → 120,000

---

Row 4:

- 104,415 → ten thousands = 0; next = 4 → round down → 100,000
- 125,755 → ten thousands = 2; next = 5 → round up → 130,000
- 16,396 → ten thousands = 1; next = 6 → round up → 20,000

---

Row 5:

- 156,389 → ten thousands = 5; next = 6 → round up → 160,000
- 122,837 → ten thousands = 2; next = 2 → round down → 120,000
- 74,855 → ten thousands = 7; next = 4 → round down → 70,000

---

Row 6:

- 26,485 → ten thousands = 2; next = 6 → round up → 30,000
- 145,725 → ten thousands = 4; next = 5 → round up → 150,000
- 226,610 → ten thousands = 2; next = 6 → round up → 230,000

---

Row 7:

- 69,114 → ten thousands = 6; next = 9 → round up → 70,000
- 46,332 → ten thousands = 4; next = 6 → round up → 50,000
- 70,644 → ten thousands = 7; next = 0 → round down → 70,000

---

Row 8:

- 142,036 → ten thousands = 4; next = 2 → round down → 140,000
- 269,952 → ten thousands = 6; next = 9 → round up → 270,000
- 127,914 → ten thousands = 2; next = 7 → round up → 130,000

---

Row 9:

- 95,285 → ten thousands = 9; next = 5 → round up → 100,000
- 188,027 → ten thousands = 8; next = 8 → round up → 190,000
- 39,557 → ten thousands = 3; next = 9 → round up → 40,000

---

Row 10:

- 24,046 → ten thousands = 2; next = 4 → round down → 20,000

*(Note: The last row only has one number — 24,046 — so we just do that one.)*

## 💡 Tip for Students:

Always underline or circle the ten thousands digit, then look at the digit immediately to its right. That’s your “decider”!
