Question

Round 132,654 to the nearest one thousand

Answer 1

Well the 2 is in the thousands and the number before it is six and because of the number before 2 happens to be over 5 the 2 changes into a 3 thus making your answer 133,000

Answer 2

If you are rounding to the nearest thousands place, you look at the hundreds place. The hundreds place is a 6. Since 6 is larger than 4, you would round up. So the answer is 133,000.
