Answer:

Number = 1,275

⇒If last two digit of a number when rounded to nearest Hundred is greater than or equal to 50, we add 1 to the Number at Hundred's place and replace last two digit by 0.

So, 1,275 when rounded to nearest Hundred will be = 1300

So, Aisha is Incorrect,that, 1,275 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1,200 because "2 is less than 5".
