Round 5,389.029 to the nearest hundred.

The answer is 5,400. You only have to worry about the hundreds and tens place so don't be intimidated by a bunch of numbers. 3 is the hundreds number and 8 is the tens number. You have to see which number it is closer to 3 or 4 and 8 is closer to being 4 in the hundreds place than 3 in the hundreds place so it is 5,400. This applies to other roundings. You just look at the number placement being rounded and the number after.

After rounding 5,389.029 to the nearest hundred, the result is 5,400. This is because the digit in the tens place (8) is greater than 5, leading to an increase in the hundreds place digit. Therefore, we round up the hundreds digit from 3 to 4.
