Explanation:

Step1: Identify the two - hundred numbers for 377

377 is between 300 and 400.

Step2: Calculate the halfway number

The halfway number between 300 and 400 is $\frac{300 + 400}{2}=350$.

Step3: Compare 377 with the halfway number

377>350.

Step4: Determine the rounding direction

Since 377 is greater than 350, we round up.

Step5: Round 377 to the nearest hundred

377 rounded to the nearest hundred is 400.

For question 8:

• For 292, it is between 200 and 300. The halfway number is 250. Since 292>250, 292 rounded to the nearest hundred is 300.
• For 386, it is between 300 and 400. The halfway number is 350. Since 386>350, 386 rounded to the nearest hundred is 400.

For question 9:
The number is between 500 and 600. The halfway number is 550. Since we round up and the number is greater than 550, the number is 575.

For question 10:
999 is between 900 and 1000. The halfway number is 950. Since 999>950, 999 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1000.
