Solution
The correct option is B 5700
To round off a number to the nearest 100, we check the last two digits of the number.
If the last two digits form a number less than 50, we round down the number to the nearest lower multiple of 100.
If the last two digits form 50 or more than 50, we round up the number to the nearest higher multiple of 100.
The multiples of 100 closer to 5747 are 5700 and 5800.
Since 47 is less than 50, 5747 is rounded off to 5700.
The number line also shows that 5747 is closer to 5700 than 5800.
