Solution

The correct option is A 200
Given number is 188.
188 lies between 100 and 200.
The number formed by the last two digits of 188 is 88.

If the last two digits form a number greater than or equal 50, then we round up the given number to the nearest multiple of 100 which is greater than the number.

$∵$ 88 > 50
$∴$ 188 will be rounded off as 200.
