Question

The population of a city is 765,483 . What is this number rounded to the ten thousand place

Answer 1

To round the population of 765,483 to the ten thousand place, you need to look at the digit in the thousand place, which is the third digit from the right. In this case, the number is:

- Ten thousands: 7
- Thousands: 6 (this is the digit we will use for rounding)
- Hundreds: 4
- Tens: 8
- Units: 3

Since the digit in the thousand place (6) is 5 or greater, we round up the ten thousand place digit (7) by 1.

Thus, rounding 765,483 to the ten thousand place gives you:

**770,000.**
