Solution

The correct option is C 3600

To round off a number to the nearest hundred, find the multiples of 100 just before and after the number.

Next, we check the last two digits of the number. If the last two digits are 50 or more, we round up the number to the higher value.

The multiples of 100 just before and after 3589 are 3500 and 3600.

Since 89 > 50, 3589 is rounded off to 3600.

We can see on the number line above that 3589 is closer to 3600 than 3500.
