Question

Kaya figured out that she will need $47,592 to attend college. What is the amount rounded to the nearest ten thousand? Help meeee

Answer 1

$50,000

Explanation:

=> $47,592

While rounding off to the nearest thousand, we check the thousands place. If the digit in the thousands place is greater than 5, 1 will be added to the T. Th. place while if its less than 5, there will be no change and The digits except the ten thousands place will all become zero.

So,

=> $50,000

Answer 2

50,000

Explanation:

ten thousand thousand hundreds tens ones

4 7 5 9 2

When rounding to the ten thousands, we look at the thousands place

If it is 5 or higher we round the ten thousands place up

7 is five or higher so we round the 4 up one place 4 becomes 5 and the rest becomes 0

5 0 0 0 0
