Question

What is 5829. to the nearest thousand

Answer 1

to the nearest thousand, 5829 is 6000

Explanation:

We have to round 5829 to the nearest thousand,

We have,

Thousand : Hundred : Ten : Unit

5 : 8 : 2 : 9

Now, we have an 8 in the hundred position, since 8 > 5, we have to round up ( if the number at the hundred position was less than 5, we would have left the number to the left as is)

Now, we have 5 in the thousand position, due to rounding, we get,

5+1 = 6

so, to the nearest thousand, 5829 is 6000
