Answer:

10,000

Explanation:

9742 to nearest thousand

We have to look at our place value here. Since we are rounding to the nearest thousand, we look at the value in the thousand place (9), and the number after it (7), in the hundreds.

7 > 5 so we round up.

9 becomes 10

we disregard the rest of the numbers, and we are left with:

10,000

Hope this helps!
