Consider the provided number 85
According to place value.
Thousands hundreds Tens Ones
1000 100 10 1
We need to round it to the nearest hundred.
The provided number can be written as 085
The digit at the hundred place is 0.
The rule of rounding a number is:
If 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 follow the number, then no need to change the rounding digit.
If 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 follow the number, then rounding digit rounds up by one number.
Here, the number at the tens place is 8, so to round up the number increase the digit of hundred place by 1.
The digit at the hundred place is 0 so increase it by 1.
Thus, the number can be rounded to the nearest hundred is shown as:
100
The nearest hundred of the provided number 85 is 100.
