Consider the number 38,288
Now, we have to round this number to the nearest hundreds place.
The place value to the extreme right of the number is ones, then tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands and so on.
So, the digit at hundreds place = 2
Consider the digit to the right of the hundred place which is '8', which is greater than 5.
Therefore, we will add '1' to the digit at hundreds place.
Therefore, the number 38,288 rounded to nearest hundreds is 38,300.
