If a five digit number is rounded to the ten thousands place is it possible for the rounded number to be a six digit number.

When rounding a number, the digit of the number can be increased up to 1, but the digit won't be decreased. So, it is possible to round a five digit number into six digit number. But to increase the number digit, the number should be rounded up. To be rounded up, a number should have value 5 or more.
