Given,

710×80

To find,

The product after rounding it to the nearest thousand.

Solution,

The product of 710×80 after rounding it to the nearest thousand will be 57000.

We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.

First, we will find the product.

710×80 = 56,800

Now, we know that when rounding the number to the nearest thousand we look at the digit at hundreds. If it is more than 5 then the number next to it is increased by one and if it is less than 5 then the number next to it (thousand) is reduced by one. And all the digits after the thousand are replaced by zero.

In this case, the digit at hundreds is 8. So, the number next to it is increased by 1.

So,

The required number is 57,000.

Hence, the product of 710×80 after rounding it to the nearest thousand is 57000.
