[tex]\text {Hi! Let's Solve this Problem!}[/tex]
[tex]\text {Since we are rounding to the nearest hundred we are going to look at the 1}[/tex]
[tex]\text {We underline the 1 in the hundreds place}[/tex]
[tex]\text {2} \underline {1} \text {42}[/tex]
[tex]\text {After we underline the 1 we point an arrow at 4}[/tex]
[tex]\text {Remember that the number 5 and above we'll round up.}[/tex]
[tex]\text {Numbers 4 and below you round down.}[/tex]
[tex]\text {Compare:}[/tex]
[tex]4<5[/tex]
[tex]\text {Since 5 is the largest number we round down since 4 is smaller than 5.}[/tex]
[tex]\text {So this means that 2,142 rounded to the nearest hundred is}[/tex]
[tex]\fbox {2,100}[/tex]
[tex]\text {All numbers after 1 becomes 0}[/tex]
[tex]\text {If we were to round up then our answer would of been 2,200}[/tex]
[tex]\text {Best of Luck!}[/tex]
[tex]\text {-LimitedX}[/tex]
