The answer would be 220,because you would look at the 8,and the 8 determines what your number would be in your tenths place,and 8 is bigger than 5,so you would round to 220

218, look and the tens place, the tens place is a 1. now look at the right of the tens place. the rule is if the right digit of the place value your rounding is 5 or above, round up, if it's 4 or below, round down.
clearly 8 is 5 or above, so we round up. 218 rounded to the nearest ten is 220.
