656 x 106

We will round to nearest hundreds and then multiply.

106 is in between 100 and 200

100 --- 106 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------200

The nearest hundred?

It is 100.

Now,

656 is in between 600 and 700,

600 ------------------------------------------------------656-------------------------------------700

It is nearest to 700

So, the problem becomes

700 x 100

7 times 1 is 7, then we put the number of zeros, that is 4 of them, so

700 x 100 = 70000
