Answer 2

Answer:

The nearest hundred of the provided number 739 is 700.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided number 739

According to place value.

Thousands   hundreds   Tens   Ones

   1000             100            10        1

We need to round it to the nearest hundred.

The rule of rounding a number is:

If 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 follow the number, then no need to change the rounding digit.

If 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 follow the number, then rounding digit rounds up by one number.

Here, the number at the tens place is 3, so no need to change the rounding digit

Thus, the nearest hundred of the provided number 739 is 700.

The location of 739 on the number line is shown in figure 1.
