Question

Round the following numbers to the nearest 100. The numbers they have 324,558,256

Answer 1

300, 600, 300

Explanation:

When you round a number up by the nearest 100. The digit in the tens place must be equal to or more than 5.

For example: 250 is rounded up to 300, but 240 can not be rounded up to 300.

When you have a number like 240, it can only be rounded down to 200

324 is rounded down to 300 because the tens place digit is less than 5

558 is rounded up to 600 because the tens place digit is higher than 5.

256 is rounded up to 300 because the tens place digit is 5.

Answer 2

300, 600, 300.

Explanation:

324: The tens digit is 2 so we do nothing to the hundreds digit so its 300.

558: The tens digit is 5 so we round up the 5 . So it is 600.

In a similar way 256 becomes 300.
