Question

Round off 8008 to the nearest tens.

Answer 1

The given number is 8008.

Step 1: Identify the place value of the rounding digit
Here, we are rounding to tens digit i.e. 0 in 8008

Step 2: Look at the digit to the right of the rounding digit. Here, we want to round to the nearest tens we would look at the ones place i.e. 8 in 8008.

Step 3: Here, digit that is right to the rounding digit is 8, which is greater than 5. So we add 1 to the rounding digit 0 in 8008 i.e. 0 + 1 = 1 and digits after 1 become zeros.

Hence, rounded off number = 8010.
