Round off to Nearest 100
In round off to nearest 100 we will learn how to round the number to the nearest hundred.
Rules for Rounding off to the Nearest 100:
Rule I: While rounding off to the nearest hundred, if the digit in the tens place is between 0 – 4 i.e. < 5, then the tens place is replaced by ‘0’.
Rule II: If the digit in the units place is equal to or >5, then the tens place is replaced by ‘0’ and the hundreds place is increased by 1.
Examples on rounding off to the nearest hundred (100):
1. (i) 142 → 100
We see the digit in the tens place is 2, we round to the nearest multiple of hundred which is less than the number. Hence, 142 is nearer to 100 than 200.
(ii) 486 → 500
We see the digit in the tens place is 8, we round to the nearest multiple of hundred which is greater than the number. Hence, 486 is nearer to 500 than 400.
(iii) 799 → 800
We see the digit in the tens place is 9, we round to the nearest multiple of hundred which is greater than the number. Hence, 799 is nearer to 800 than 700.
(iv) 4387 → 4400
We see the digit in the tens place is 8, we round to the nearest multiple of hundred which is greater than the number. Hence, 4387 is nearer to 4400 than 4300.
(v) 950 → 1000
We see the digit in the tens place is 5, we round to the nearest multiple of hundred which is greater than the number. Hence, 950 is nearer to 1000 than 900.
2. Round off 7,45,677 to the nearest 100.
Solution:
We choose the two multiple of 100 just greater than and just
less than 7,45,677 on the number line.
We observe that 7,45,677 is closer to 7,45,700. So, it is rounded down to 7,45,700.
Round off to Nearest 100
Step I: Replace ones and tens digits by zeroes.
Step II: If tens digit is 5 or more than 5, increase the hundreds digit by 1, otherwise do not change.
Step III: Leave rest of the digits unchanged.

We will solve different types of problems given in the Worksheet on H.C.F. and L.C.M. I. Find highest common factor of the following by complete factorisation: (i) 48, 56, 72 (ii) 198, 360 (iii) 102, 68, 136 (iv) 1024, 576 (v) 405, 783, 513
We will learn addition of integers using number line. We know that counting forward means addition. When we add positive integers, we move to the right on the number line. For example to add +2 and +4 we move 4 steps to the right of +2. Thus, +2 +4 = +6.
The rules to add integers are as follows: Rule 1: When the two integers have the positive sign, add the integers and assign the (+) sign to the sum.
What are integers? The negative numbers, zero and the natural numbers together are called integers. A collection of numbers which is written as …….. -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4……… . These numbers are called integers.
To find out factors of larger numbers quickly, we perform divisibility test. There are certain rules to check divisibility of numbers. Divisibility tests of a given number by any of the number 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 can be perform simply by examining the digits of the
While rounding off to the nearest thousand, if the digit in the hundreds place is between 0 – 4 i.e., < 5, then the hundreds place is replaced by ‘0’. If the digit in the hundreds place is = to or > 5, then the hundreds place is replaced by ‘0’ and the thousands place is
Round off to nearest 10 is discussed here. Rounding can be done for every place-value of number. To round off a number to the nearest tens, we round off to the nearest multiple of ten. A large number may be rounded off to the nearest 10. Rules for Rounding off to Nearest 10
Rounding numbers is required when we deal with large numbers, for example, suppose the population of a district is 5834237, it is difficult to remember the seven digits and their order
We will learn how to solve step-by-step the word problems on multiplication and division of whole numbers. We know, we need to do multiplication and division in our daily life. Let us solve some word problem examples.
Common multiples of two or more given numbers are the numbers which can exactly be divided by each of the given numbers. Consider the following. (i) Multiples of 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, …………etc. Multiples of 4 are: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, …………… etc.
Common factors of two or more numbers are a number which divides each of the given numbers exactly. For examples 1. Find the common factor of 6 and 8. Factor of 6 = 1, 2, 3 and 6. Factor
The properties of division are discussed here: 1. If we divide a number by 1 the quotient is the number itself. In other words, when any number is divided by 1, we always get the number itself as the quotient. For example: (i) 7542 ÷ 1 = 7542 (ii) 372 ÷ 1 = 372
To multiply a number by 10, 100, or 1000 we need to count the number of zeroes in the multiplier and write the same number of zeroes to the right of the multiplicand. Rules for the multiplication by 10, 100 and 1000: If we multiply a whole number by a 10, then we write one
