Question
586 rounded to the nearest 100 is:
- 600
- 500
- 580
- 590
Hint:
Rounding off means a number is made simpler by keeping its value intact but closer to the next number
The correct answer is: 600
Step 1 of 1:
Estimates or approximations can be found by rounding numbers to the nearest 10,100,1000 etc.
If the next digit is 0,1,2,3 or 4, then round down.
If the next digit is 5,6,7,8 or 9, then round up.
So, 586 rounded off to nearest 100 is 600.
If the next digit is 0,1,2,3 or 4, then round down.
If the next digit is 5,6,7,8 or 9, then round up.
