Answer:
The nearest hundred thousand of the provided number is 100,000.
Explanation:
Consider the provided number 89, 659
According to place value.
Hundred Th. Ten Th. Thousands hundreds Tens Ones
100,000 10,000 1000 100 10 1
We need to round it to the nearest hundred thousand.
The provided number can be written as 089,659
The digit at the hundred thousand place is 0.
The rule of rounding a number is:
If 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 follow the number, then no need to change the rounding digit.
If 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 follow the number, then rounding digit rounds up by one number.
Here, the number at the ten thousands place is 8, so to round up the number increase the digit of hundred thousand place by 1.
The digit at the hundred thousand place is 0 so increase it by 1.
Thus, the number can be rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is shown as:
100,000
The nearest hundred thousand of the provided number is 100,000.
