Given,
Main number = 123
To find,
Rounding off the main number to nearest tens.
Solution,
We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.
Now, there are two nearest multiples of 10 (or, rounded off to tens) to the main number. One will be less than the main number and other will be greater than the main number.
Nearest multiples of 10 to the main number are :
12 × 10 = 120
13 × 10 = 130
(Or, if we plot multiples of 10 on a number line, then 123 situated will be in between 120 and 130, on said number line.)
Now, among these two multiples of 10, we have to further calculate which multiple of 10 is even nearer to the main number.
Differences :
123-120 = 3
130-123 = 7
As, 3<7
120 will be nearer to 123 as compared to 130, if we plot all the numbers on a number line.
So, the rounded off value = 120
Hence, 123 rounded off to nearest tens is 120
