Question

math problems for 3rd graders in switzerland 2473 people participated in a snowball fight what is 2472 rounded to the nearer hundred?

Answer 1

The answer would be 2500

Explanation:

The number is 2473 and 473 is near 500 not 400

If we round the number up to the nearest hundred and the last two digits are 50 or above it would go up

so 73 would go above

so that's why it's 2500

I know its confusing the way I explain is so confusing

Answer 2

2500

Explanation:

2472 is rounded to 2500 because 472 is closer to 500 not 400 so you go up to the next number and itll be 2500
