Rounding Whole Numbers Using the Number Line (Part 2)

The video tutorial teaches how to round numbers to the nearest 10, 100, and 1000 using number lines. It explains the process of locating a number on a number line with appropriate benchmarks and increments, and then rounding it to the closest benchmark. The tutorial uses the example of rounding 1425 to the nearest thousand, demonstrating that it is closer to 1000 than 2000. The lesson concludes by summarizing the rounding process for different place values.

What is the nearest thousand to which 1425 is rounded?

• 2500

• 2000

• 1500

• 1000

When rounding a number to the nearest place, what is the first step?

• Choose a random benchmark

• Locate the number on the number line

• Estimate the number

• Multiply the number by 10

What increments are used when rounding to the nearest 10?

• Increments of 10

• Increments of 5

• Increments of 2

• Increments of 1

Which benchmarks are used when rounding to the nearest hundred?

• Benchmarks of 10

• Benchmarks of 100
