Answer:

2,000 is rounded to 2,000

1,376 is rounded to 1,400

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to round each number to the nearest hundred, so we need to round the number to a number that ends with 2 zeros like 100, 200, 300, 1500, 1600, 1700 because all these numbers are multiples of 100.

Therefore:

2,000 is rounded to 2,000

1,376 is rounded to 1,400

Because 2,000 ends with 2 zeros, and 1,376 is between 1,300 and 1,400. However, it is closer to 1,400.
