Drag each place value name to the correct location in Part A. Drag each digit to the correct location on the number in Part B. Each digit can be used more than once, but not all place value names or digits will be used.

Maria rounded all of these numbers to the same place value and found the same rounded value for each. The place value she rounded to was the farthest possible place to the right that would give her the same rounded value for each number.
12561
13478
13329
12823


In Part A, identify the place value that Maria rounded all of the numbers to. Drag the name of the place value to the box.

In Part B, drag digits to show the rounded value of the numbers. Put one digit in each place, and do not leave any places blank.

To find the place value to which Maria rounded all the numbers (12561, 13478, 13329, 12823) and to show the rounded values, let's analyze each number.

Step 1: Determine the rounded values

  1. 12561 rounded to the nearest ten is 12560.
  2. 13478 rounded to the nearest ten is 13480.
  3. 13329 rounded to the nearest ten is 13330.
  4. 12823 rounded to the nearest ten is 12820.

None of these numbers round to the same value if we round to just the nearest ten since they yield different rounded results. However, if we round to the nearest hundred:

  1. 12561 rounded to the nearest hundred is 12600.
  2. 13478 rounded to the nearest hundred is 13500.
  3. 13329 rounded to the nearest hundred is 13300.
  4. 12823 rounded to the nearest hundred is 12800.

These also yield different values. Let's try rounding to the nearest thousand instead:

  1. 12561 rounded to the nearest thousand is 13000.
  2. 13478 rounded to the nearest thousand is 13000.
  3. 13329 rounded to the nearest thousand is 13000.
  4. 12823 rounded to the nearest thousand is 13000.

This gives us the same rounded value of 13000.

Conclusion for Part A

The farthest possible place value to the right that Maria rounded to, and resulted in the same rounded value for each number, is the thousand.

Step 2: Place the digits for Part B

To show the rounded value of 13000, we will display it as follows.

  • Thousands place: 1
  • Hundreds place: 3
  • Tens place: 0
  • Ones place: 0

Final presentation

Part A:

  • Place value: thousand

Part B:

| Thousands | Hundreds | Tens | Ones | |-----------|----------|------|------| | 1 | 3 | 0 | 0 |

If you have specific drag-and-drop options, please arrange them accordingly based on the conclusion above!
