Question

What is 77543 rounded to the nearest hundred

Answer 1

77500

Explanation:

To round something to the nearest hundred, we first look to the 10s digit. It is 4. Since 4 is less than 5, then we keep the same hundreds place. So we get 77500.

Answer 2

`77500`

Explanation:

In this case, the digit in the hundredths place is a
`5`. We need to take a look at the next digit to the right, which is a
`4`.

Since it is
`4` or less, we can simply replace the
`4` and the rest of the digits to the right with
`0`s to round it.

If the
`4` was
`5` or more, we would round the
`5` up to
`6` and replace the remaining digits to the right with
`0`s.
