    This document discusses rounding numbers to the nearest 100. It explains that to round to the nearest 100, you look at the tens place value and round up if the digit is 5 or greater, and round down if it is less than 5. Examples are provided rounding numbers like 267 and 243 to the nearest 100. An exercise is included to have the reader practice rounding numbers like 157, 119, 1,132, 4,979 and 31,350 to the nearest 100. The document also discusses rounding very large numbers, like $9,853,947, to different levels of accuracy such as the nearest 1,000, 10,000 or 1,000,000.

    Rounding to the nearest 100


    When rounding to the nearest 10, we looked at the last digit (or units digit) of the number.
    To round to the nearest 100 we must check the tens digit.

    Example
    267 rounded to the nearest 100 is 300
    243 rounded to the nearest 100 is 200

    two digits
    If the tens digit is less than 5 round down. If the tens digits is 5 or more, round up.
