Question

The football stadium at the local university can hold 46,550 spectators. How many spectators can the football stadium hold if you round the answer of the nearest thousand?

Answer 1

46 550.

the thousand digit is the 6. The digit after the 6 is 5. So we can round up the 6 to 7. If it was not up to 5 we have rounded the 5 down to 0.

= 47 000  to the nearest thousand.

Answer 2

47,000 because you are rounding to the nearest thousand.So.The 6 is in the thousands place.underline the 6.circle the 5. 5 or more raise the score.4 or less,let it rest.so five.you raise the score.leave the rest of the digits 0. and that is how you get 47,000
