Place Value Rounding
Rounding Step 1 –Underline the number in the place value in which you are rounding to... Example: Round to the thousands –35,
Step 2 –Look at the number to the right of the underlined digit and use the rounding rules If that digit is “5” or more, the underline digit goes up 1 If that digit is “4” or less, the underline digit stays the same –Example: Round to the thousands –35, The 7 tells us to round up and have the answer Answer = 36, Be sure to make all of the numbers to the right of the underlined digit ZEROS!
