Question

The area of a building is 709,650 square 'What is this number rounded to the nearest thousand square '

Answer 1

Answer: 710,000 square feet

Explanation:

To round to the nearest thousand, we will look to the hundreds place. If it is at or above 5, we will round up. If it's at or below 4, we won't round up.

`709,650 \rightarrow 709,\boxed{6}50\;\;\;6 > 5\;\;\;\rightarrow 710,000`
