To find the digit to the right of the thousands place, we look at the digit in the hundreds place. Then, we use this digit to round off to the nearest thousand.
Let's go through each number:
1) For the number 1372, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 3. To round off to the nearest thousand, we consider the digit in the hundreds place (3). Since 3 is less than 5, we round down. Therefore, 1372 rounded to the nearest thousand is 1000.
2) For the number 3547, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 4. To round off to the nearest thousand, we consider the digit in the hundreds place (4). Again, 4 is less than 5, so we round down. Therefore, 3547 rounded to the nearest thousand is 3000.
3) For the number 5893, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 5. To round off to the nearest thousand, we consider the digit in the hundreds place (8). This time, 8 is greater than or equal to 5, so we round up. Therefore, 5893 rounded to the nearest thousand is 6000.
4) For the number 6501, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 0. To round off to the nearest thousand, we consider the digit in the hundreds place (5). Again, 5 is greater than or equal to 5, so we round up. Therefore, 6501 rounded to the nearest thousand is 7000.
5) For the number 8688, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 8. To round off to the nearest thousand, we consider the digit in the hundreds place (8). Once again, 8 is greater than or equal to 5, so we round up. Therefore, 8688 rounded to the nearest thousand is 9000.
6) For the number 21526, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 2. To round off to the nearest thousand, we consider the digit in the hundreds place (5). Since 5 is less than 5, we round down. Therefore, 21526 rounded to the nearest thousand is 21000.
To circle the digit to the right of the thousands place in each number, we need to first understand the place value system.
In the place value system, the rightmost place value is the ones place, followed by the tens place, hundreds place, thousands place, and so on.
Let's analyze each number and circle the digit to the right of the thousands place:
1. In 1372, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 3.
2. In 3547, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 5.
3. In 5893, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 8.
4. In 6501, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 0.
5. In 8688, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 8.
6. In 21526, the digit to the right of the thousands place is 5.
To round each number to the nearest thousand using the circled digit, we can follow these rules:
- If the circled digit is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, we round down (keep the thousands place digit unchanged).
- If the circled digit is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, we round up (increase the thousands place digit by 1).
Based on the circled digit in each number, we can round off the numbers to the nearest thousand as follows:
1. 1372 rounded to the nearest thousand would be 1000.
(Since the circled digit is 3, which is less than 5, we round down.)
2. 3547 rounded to the nearest thousand would be 4000.
(Since the circled digit is 5, which is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.)
3. 5893 rounded to the nearest thousand would be 6000.
(Since the circled digit is 8, which is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.)
4. 6501 rounded to the nearest thousand would be 6000.
(Since the circled digit is 0, which is less than 5, we round down.)
5. 8688 rounded to the nearest thousand would be 9000.
(Since the circled digit is 8, which is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.)
6. 21526 rounded to the nearest thousand would be 22000.
(Since the circled digit is 5, which is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.)
