Each box tells you what a number will round to when rounded to the nearest hundred and nearest ten. Drag each number to the box that shows how it rounds.
Nearest hundred: 500
Nearest ten: 540
Nearest hundred: 500
Nearest ten: 550
Nearest hundred: 600
Nearest ten: 560
Let’s break down the rounding for each number:
1. Nearest hundred: 500 / Nearest ten: 540
– A number that rounds to 500 when rounded to the nearest hundred would be between 450 and 549.
– A number that rounds to 540 when rounded to the nearest ten would be between 535 and 544.
Thus, the only number that fits both criteria is 540.
2. Nearest hundred: 500 / Nearest ten: 550
– A number that rounds to 500 when rounded to the nearest hundred would again be between 450 and 549.
– A number that rounds to 550 when rounded to the nearest ten would be between 545 and 554.
Therefore, the only number that fits both criteria is 550.
3. Nearest hundred: 600 / Nearest ten: 560
– A number that rounds to 600 would be between 550 and 649.
– A number that rounds to 560 would be from 555 to 564.
So, the number that fits both criteria is 560.
To summarize, the numbers that correspond to each box are:
– 540 for the first box,
– 550 for the second box,
– 560 for the third box.
