Answer:

630,400,000

Explanation:

630,379,982

The 3 above that is bold, between the 0 and the 7, is in the hundred thousands place.

To round to a place, change all digits to the right of that place to zero. If the digit immediately to the right is 0 through 4, you're done. If the digit immediately to the right is from 5 to 9, then you raise the digit you are rounding to by 1.

Step 1. Make all digits to the right of the hundred thousands digit 0.

630,300,000

Step 2. Since the digit immediately to the right of the hundred thousands digit was a 7, which is from 5 to 9, the digit we are rounding to goes up by 1. The 3 becomes 4.

630,400,000

Answer: 630,400,000
