Question

Round off the following number to the nearest​ thousand: (v) $9248$.

Answer 1

Given, number is $9248$.​
So, the hundreds digit of $9248$ is $2$.​

[If the hundreds digit is less than $5$, replace each one of hundreds,tens and one’s digits by $0$ and keep the other digits as they are. Also, If in the given number , hundreds digit is $5$ or more than $5$, increase the thousands digit by $1$ and replace each other digit on its right by $0$.]​
$\because$ $2$ is less than $5$,

So, to round off the given number to the nearest thousand , we replace $2$ (hundreds digit) , $6$ (ten’s digit) and $8$ (one's digit) by $0$.
​$\therefore$ $9248$ is $9000$.
Hence, round off of $9248$ nearest thousand is $9000$.​
