ANSWER

77,300

Step-by-step explanation

We want to round 77,268 to the nearest hundred.

First, we identify the number after the number in the hundred place value. That is 6.

When rounding up/down, if the number after the required place value is greater than or equal to 5, we round up by adding one to the place value, but if the number is less than 5, we round down by adding 0.

Since 6 is greater than 5, we have that 77,268 rounded to the nearest hundred is:

77,300
