Explanation:

A museum had 275,608 visitors last year.

We round the given number to nearest thousand

275,608

8 is in once place

0 is in tens place

6 is in hundreds place

5 is in thousands place

7 is in ten thousands place

2 is in hundred thousands place

Here 5 is in thousand place, 6 is in hundreds place that is greater than 5

so we add 1 with 5. put 0 for remaining places

276,000
