What to Focus On

  • Rounding off gives us a number close to the original but easier to use.
  • We look at the digit to the right of the place we are rounding to.
  • If the digit is 5 or more, we round up. If it is less than 5, we round down.

  • To round to nearest hundred, check the tens digit.
  • To round to nearest thousand, check the hundreds digit.
  • Numbers like 500, 1500, etc., are halfway points and are always rounded up.

  • Estimation gives a quick, approximate answer.
  • We round numbers before adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing.
  • Estimation helps in checking if our actual answer is reasonable.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If a number ends in 5, we always round it down.

We round each number in a sum to the nearest ten, even when estimating large numbers.

Rounding changes the actual value, so estimation is always wrong.

Memory Tips

Rounding to nearest 10: Look at ones digit

Rounding to nearest 100: Look at tens digit

Rounding to nearest 1000: Look at hundreds digit

If digit is 5 or more, round up
