the nearest hundred spot is 700 for the number. when rounding for hundreds, you use the 2nd digit number. Example, if a proablem asks to round 521 to the nearest hundred it would be 500. Another rule to remember is that anything 5 and above you round up (ex: 589 would round up to 600). Anything below 5 you would round down (ex: 234 would round down to 200). goinf back to the problem, the answer should be 7,700
