Answer: 50,000

Step-by-step explanation: To round 52,864 to the nearest ten thousand, we first find the digit in the rounding place which in this case is the 5 in the ten thousands place.

Next, we look at the digit to the right of 5 which is 2.

Since the digit to the right of the rounding

place is less 5, we round down.

So the 5 in the rounding place stays the same and all digits to the right of the rounding pace become 0.

So 52,864 rounded to the nearest ten thousand is 50,000.
