Answered using GPT-4o mini by AI Answer Generator

Question:

which of the following is rounded to the nearest ten thousands?

A. 30000 b. 23000 c. 27500 d. 27090

Answer:

To round a number to the nearest ten thousand, you look at the thousands digit. If it is 5 or greater, you round up; if it is less than 5, you round down.

Let's analyze each option:

A. 30000 - This is already at ten thousand, so it remains 30000.

B. 23000 - This is also at ten thousand, so it remains 23000.

C. 27500 - The thousands digit is 7 (which is greater than 5), so you round up to 30000.

D. 27090 - The thousands digit is 7 (which is greater than 5), so you round up to 30000.

The only options that are already rounded to the nearest ten thousand are A (30000) and B (23000).

So, the answer is A. 30000 and **B. 23000
