Question

Round of 793,548 to the nearest hundred

Answer 1

Answer: 793,500

Explanation:

If the number at the hundred’s place is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, the number is rounded up.Example – We want to round off 54897 to the nearest 100.

1. Look for the digit at the hundred’s place. It is 8.

2. Now look for the digit to the right of the digit at the hundred’s place. The number is 93. Since this number is greater than 5, we round up the number, i.e. we round it off to the nearest 100 that comes next to this number. So, 97 becomes 100 which on adding to 8 at the hundred’s places, becomes 900.Hence, the number 54897 after being rounded off to the nearest 100 is 54900

Answer 2

793,500

Explanation:

When rounding to the nearest hundred, we have to look to the digit to the right, which is in the tens place. If the digit is 4 or less, you "let it rest", meaning you change the digits below the hundreds place into 0. If the digit is 5 or more, you bump up the tens digit and make the remaining digits 0.

In this case, the tens place is 4, so we round down to get 793,500.
