Question

(1.3 ESTIMATION AND ROUNDING OFF NUMBERS
We come across many situations in our daily life such as: winehundeniny
25,000 people nearly visited, Salarjung museum in the month of November.
9 lakh students approximately will appear the S.S.C board examination this year in our state.
43,500 tonnes roughly of iron is loaded in the ships in Vizag port every year.
the words 'nearly', 'approximately', 'roughly' do not show the exact number of people or
material. Infact 25,000 may be 24,975 or 25,045. i.e. it may be a little less or more, but not exact.
Estimation is also a good way of checking answers. We usually round off the numbers to
the nearest 10's, 100's, 1000's, 10000's.... etc.
Look at the following numbers and rounding off the numbers to the nearest tens.
86
80 (81 82 83 84 (85
(87) 88 89 90
81 is near to 80 than 90, so 81 will be rounded off 80.87 is nearer to 90 than 80, 90 87
will be rounded off to 90.
is at equal distance from 80 and 90 but by convention it is rounded off to 90.
Vrounding off the numbers to nearest hundreds:
5
200 210 220
230 240 250 260
270
(280 290 300
125
220 is nearer to 200 than 300, so 220 is rounded off to 200.280 is nearer to 300 xhan
200, so it is rounded off to 300.
What is the rounding off number for 250? Why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey, there!!!

250 will be rounded off to 300 because numbers having 50 or above is rounded off to the next hundred. If it would have been between 200-249 we would have rounded it off to its nearest hundred i.e. 200.

The answer to this is already explained in the passage just go through it carefully and you will be able to solve it on your own.

Hope this helps.
