First, let's take a look at the hundreds place.

2 6 0 0

We should ignore the 2 since it is in the thousands place.

Remember the rule: If the tens place is 50 and up, it should be rounded up.

If the tens place is 49 and below, it should be rounded down.

EX: 650 -----> 700 | 640 -----> 600

Since there is a 0 in the tens place, we should round it down.

605 -----> 600

Have a marvelous day!

The hundreds place is the bolded number below

2, 605

To determine if you round up or stay the same you must look at the number after the 6. In this case the number after the 6 is 0.

A number will round up if this number (0) is 5 or greater. If it is smaller then 5 then the decimal will not round up.

In this case this means that the 6 will stay the same and everything after it will become zeros...

2,600

Hope this helped!
