- 1
When rounding a number to the nearest 10, you look at the ones place; if that digit is 5 or greater, you round up.
- 2
To round a number to the nearest 100, you examine the digit in the tens place; if it is less than 5, you round down.
- 3
The digit in the place value to the right of the place you are rounding determines whether you round up or down.
