Answer:
Hence, the greatest number can be 25,499.
Explanation:
Consider the provided number.
We need to find the largest possible crowd that round to 25,000.
Rule of rounding a number.
If the number on the right side of rounding digit is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 then no need to change the rounding digit and change the rest of the digit right to rounding digit with 0.
If the number on the right side of rounding digit is 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 then rounding digit rounds up by one number and change the rest of the digit right to rounding digit with 0.
Now we want the greatest number that's rounds to 25,000.
For greatest number the number should be greater than 25,000.
We don't want to increase the number at the thousands place so the greatest possible choice for hundreds place is 4. To make the largest number put 9 at the rest places.
Hence, the greatest number can be 25,499.
