Question

round 7,391 to the nearest hundred.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the hundreds place

In the number 7,391, the digit in the hundreds place is 3 (since the number is 7 (thousands), 3 (hundreds), 9 (tens), 1 (ones)).

Step2: Look at the tens digit

The digit in the tens place is 9. When rounding to the nearest hundred, if the tens digit is 5 or more, we round up the hundreds digit.

Step3: Round up the hundreds digit

Since 9 ≥ 5, we add 1 to the hundreds digit (3 + 1 = 4) and set the tens and ones digits to 0. So the number becomes 7,400.

Answer:

7400
