Why do you round numbers in math?

When the question asks you to estimate.

When the exact number is not possible.

When an answer is to difficult to obtain.

Round the numbers to…

Rounding to the tens numbers 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90...

How do we round? Look at the right side of the number

If the number is 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, round it up one number

If the number is 1, 2, 3, 4, round it down one number

You can round the number to any place value.

Remember this! Rounding’s not that hard to doLet me tell the rules to you For the digits 5 through nineRound that number up a line.For the digits four or lessRound that number down, Oh Yes!

Example:Round this number to the nearest tens place:

= 4

4 is less than 5 so you round that to 0. If the number was 5, 6,7, 8, 9 you would have rounded it

to 10.

The answer is 0 because it is less than five, and you are rounding it to the tens place.

You try it! Round 6 to the nearest tens place:

Hint: The number is greater than five
