In this activity, we will be rounding numbers to the nearest hundred.
Remember that when numbers end in 10, 20, 30 or 40, round down to the nearest hundred.
When numbers end in 50, 60, 70, 80 or 90, round up to the nearest 100.
Example
Round 536 to the nearest hundred.
Answer
536 is between 500 and 600.
Look at the 30 in the tens place.
It is below 50, so round down to 500.
Does that make sense?
