"Round 54,692 nearest thousand"

To round numbers to the nearest thousand, make the numbers whose last three digits are 001 through 499 into the next lower number that ends in 000.

The question basically is whether 105,000 becomes 106,000 or not.
It would not round down below 105,000 because it is already higher than that. So we concentrate on the "tail" of the number 105,099 and ask whether 099 (essentially 99 more than 105,000) is more than half way towards 106,000. In order to do that, the "tail" would have to be at least 500 (i.e., half way towards 106,000) as in 105,500. Because 99 is less than 500 the answer is no, the "tail" is not big enough to round up the number 105,099 to 106,000. The answer to rounding 105,099 to the nearest thousand is that because the "tail" is less than half way towards 106,000, the number would instead would round down to 105,000.

The answer is 818,000

Rounded to the nearest hundred: 82,600
nearest ten: 82,600
nearest thousand: 83,000
nearest ten thousand: 80,000

hello, if yonth place youur talking math then it means to make answer to thousandth place
ex 1.234
2 is in 10s place
3 is in 100s place and
4 is in thousandth place
so it is 1.234 to the thousanth

Well that would be... 301,500,000 rounded UP, or 301,400,000 rounded down.
BUT the second answer, 301,400,000... is YOUR answer....
The nearest hundred thousand is 400,000... hence the answer, see?
