Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you round to the nearest ten, look at the number in the ones value i.e the last digit. If it is 5 or above it then it rounds to the top. If it is below 5 then it rounds to the bottom

e.g. 56 to the nearest ten would round to 60 because 6 is greater than 5. However 73 to the nearest ten would be 70 because 3 is less than 5.

This is why 11348 to the nearest ten is 11150. 8 is greater than 5 so it rounds to 50 instead of 40.

The same concept applies to when you round to the nearest thousand. If the number in the hundreds value is greater than 5 or is 5 your round to the top. If the number is less than 5 you round to the bottom

This is why 11348 to the nearest thousand is 11100. Since 3 is less than 5 it rounds to the bottom which is 1000 instead of 2000.
