Question

What is 8,591 rounded to the nearest hundred

Answer 1

8,600

Explanation:

8,591 rounded to the nearest hundred would be done by looking at the tens place, if it is 5 or more, increase the hundred by 100. This case, the tens place is a 9 or 91, so a hundred us added and the tens and ones place becomes zero.

Answer 2

Answer: 8,600

Step-by-step explanation: The 5 in 8,591 is in the hundredths place, so when you round that number, you're rounding to the nearest hundredth. Since the 9 in the next place to the right (the tenths place), is greater than 5, you round the number in the hundredths place to the next greater number, which, in this case, is six; 8,600.
