Answer:

Thousand

Explanation:

Solve:

58,391

Knowing that:

  • Digit Less than 5 goes down
  • Digit greater than 5 goes up

When rounding to:

  • Hundred Thousand - 100,000
  • Ten Thousand - 60,000
  • Hundred - 58,400
  • Thousand - 58,000

Because the digit to the right in the hundreds place is 3 which is less than 5- Thus, it goes down to 58,000.
