1. The problem is to round numbers to the nearest 10 or 100 based on the underlined digit.
2. The rule for rounding is: Look at the digit to the right of the place value you are rounding to.
- If that digit is 5 or more, round up by adding 1 to the underlined digit and changing all digits to the right to zero.
- If that digit is less than 5, keep the underlined digit the same and change all digits to the right to zero.
3. Example given: 4,689 rounded to the nearest 1,000 is 5,000 because the hundreds digit (6) is 5 or more.
4. Let's solve the first problem completely:
- Number: 3,074
- Underlined digit is in the tens place (7)
- Look at the digit to the right (4)
- Since 4 is less than 5, keep 7 the same and change the ones digit to zero.
- So, 3,074 rounded to the nearest 10 is 3,070.
5. For the rest, the answers are:
2) 5,710
