Answer:

251,000.

Explanation:

We have been given a number 251,031.

First of all, we will find the place value of our given number as:

Ones: 1,

Tens: 3

Hundreds: 0

Thousands: 1

Ten thousands: 5

Hundred thousands: 2

We can see that the thousands digit is 1 and hundreds digit is 0. Since the value of hundreds digit is less than 5, so we will round down our number to nearest thousand that is
251,000.

Therefore, our required number would be 251,000.
