Rounding numbersRounding numbers makes long numbers easier to work with. To round a two-digit number to the nearest ten, simply bring it up or down to the nearest number that ends in 0.When a number ends in a 1,2,3, or 4 bring it down. Keep the tens digit the same and turn the ones digit into a 0.When a number ends in 5,6,7,8, or 9 bring it up; add 1 to the tens digit and turn the ones digit into a 0.When rounding a larger number, the method is the same. Focusing on the place value that you have to round and then look to the right and decide. If the number is 5 or more you round the place value up and the rest is zero. If it is less than five the number goes down to the nearest place value you are rounding.583 rounded tothe nearest hundred. The 5 is what you are rounding. It is in the hundreds place.
