A library has a total of 17,892 books. If the library wants to prepare a new shelf that can hold a similar number of books, how many books should they plan for if they round the total to the nearest thousand?

The total number of books is 17,892. When rounding to the nearest thousand, we look at the hundreds place (8). Since 8 is 5 or more, we round up. So, 17,892 rounded to the nearest thousand is 18,000.

Compare: 9 hundred thousands __ 900,000.


(9 hundred thousands is equal to 900,000).

 Which estimate (nearest thousand vs. nearest ten thousand) is more accurate? Explain.

Rounding to the thousands place is more accurate because it is a smaller place value.  This value is more accurate because it will be closer to the actually number.  For example, 92,456, rounding to the nearest thousand is 92,000.  However, rounding to the nearest ten thousand would be 90,000. As you can see the 92,000 is much closer to 92,456 than 90,000 would be.

A city has a population of 45,678 residents. If city planners want to estimate the population for future planning and round it to the nearest ten thousand, what number should they use?

The population is 45,678. When rounding to the nearest ten thousand, we look at the thousands place (5). Since 5 is 5 or more, we round up. So, 45,678 rounded to the nearest ten thousand is 50,000.
