Question

round to the nearest 1000:46,238​

Answer 1

After rounding 46238 to the nearest 1000 will be 46000. The steps involved are:

I: Check the hundredth digit in the given number.

II: If the number is less than 5 ( < 5 ) then round off to the previous thousand.

III: If the number is greater than 4 ( > 4 ) then round off to the next thousand.

• Here, at the hundredth digit, we have 2.

• It is less than 5.

• So it will be rounded off to the previous thousand.

• Thus the answer is 46000.
