Answer 1

We need to round 2,142 to the nearest hundreds. 1 is in the hundreds place.
Then look at the number on the right side of 1. It is 4. Because it lower than 5, the 1 stays the same and every number the right side turns to 0's.

2,100 is the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

2,100 would be the nearest hundred

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is 1-4 you round down if a number is 5 it stays the same and if a number is 6-9 you round up

in this case there is a 4 in the tens place so you will round down
