Question

Which number does NOT round to 880?
893
883
882
878

Answer 1

893

Explanation:

893 is too far away to round to 880. It would actually round to 890.

The last digits of 883 and 882 are small enough to round to 880.

The last digit of 878 is large enough to round to 880.

Answer 2

893

Explanation:

We round down if the digit is less than 5

We round up if the digit is 5 or more

Rounding to the nearest 10:

893 → 890 (round down as 3 is less than 5)

883 → 880 (round down as 3 is less than 5)

882 → 880 (round down as 2 is less than 5)

878 → 880 (round up as 8 is more than 5)

So the only number that does NOT round to 880 is 893.
