Math Problem Statement

Round to the place value of the underlined digit 1,306

Solution

The number provided is 1,306.

Since there is no specific indication of an underlined digit, I will assume that you meant the hundreds place (3).

To round 1,306 to the nearest hundred:

  • Look at the tens digit, which is 0.
  • Since 0 is less than 5, we round down.

Thus, 1,306 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1,300.
