Question

What is 77543 rounded to the nearest hundred

Answer 1

Answer:

$77500$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the digit in the hundredths place is a $5$.  We need to take a look at the next digit to the right, which is a $4$.

Since it is $4$ or less, we can simply replace the $4$ and the rest of the digits to the right with $0$s to round it.

If the $4$ was $5$ or more, we would round the $5$ up to $6$ and replace the remaining digits to the right with $0$s.

Answer 2

Answer:

77500

Step-by-step explanation:

To round something to the nearest hundred, we first look to the 10s digit. It is 4. Since 4 is less than 5, then we keep the same hundreds place. So we get 77500.
