To round you look at the thousands place and there is a 9 then you look at the number to the right of it which is 2 and it is lower than 5 since it is lower than five it rounds down so the correct answer is 96,000.
If the number on the right of the nearest thousand is lower than 5 the nearest thousand and the numbers to the left of it stay the same, while the numbers on the right turn into 0(zeros) but if the number in the right of the nearest thousand is 5 or grater then the nearest thousand would go up one digit while the numbers on the left of the nearest thousand stay the same, while the numbers on the right of the nearest thousand turn to zeros.
