Question

Klara picks a number. She rounds to the nearest hundred. She rounds tot the nearest thousand. She rounds the number to the nearest ten thousand. All three times, the result is the same. Which choice could be klara's number?

Answer 1

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

The question does not seem complete, but I'll try to make some explanations.

When you want to round a number, there are some rules.

1. If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, then round the number up, that is add 1 to it.

2. If the number you are rounding is followed by 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, then round the number down, that is add 0.

Now if given a number and you are asked to round to the nearest 100, 1 000, 10 000 and so on, then for nearest 100, count 2 numbers from the back. Whatever number you stop at, that is the number you are to round. For 1000 count 3, for 10 000 count 4 and so on.

Since Kiara is having the same value after rounding, it means she picked a number that has zeros after the 10 000th value

Let's assume she picked: 70 000

Rounding that number to nearest 100, 1000 and 10000 gives the same number which is

70 000.
