Rounding numbers to the nearest 10, 100 or 1000 is a form of approximating numbers, making numbers easier to read and work with. Calculations using rounding will lead to an estimated answer.
For example, to round a 4 digit number to the nearest thousand we can use a number line to see which thousand it is nearest to. Any number with a hundreds digit of 5 or more will round up to the next thousand and any number with a hundreds digit of 4 or less will round down to the previous thousand.Β
We can also round numbers to the nearest whole number, a given number of decimal places or a given number of significant figures.Β
Looking forward, students can then progress to additional number worksheets, for example an equivalent fractions & ordering fractions worksheet or simplifying fractions worksheet.
