What number whose sum of its digit is 26 become 6000 when rounded to the nearest thousand? List 3 pissible answer.
5588
6299
and others
To solve this problem, we need to find a number whose digit sum is 26 and when rounded to the nearest thousand becomes 6000.
Let's start by figuring out the possible range of numbers that could meet the digit sum requirement. Since the largest digit is 9, the number must have at least 26/9 (approximately 2.89) digits.
So, we need to consider numbers with 3 or more digits.
To make this process easier, let's start with 3-digit numbers:
1. 100: The digit sum is 1 + 0 + 0 = 1. It cannot be rounded to 6000 since it is less than 500.
Let's move on to 4-digit numbers:
2. 1000: The digit sum is 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 1. It cannot be rounded to 6000 since it is less than 5000.
3. 2318: The digit sum is 2 + 3 + 1 + 8 = 14. This number rounded to the nearest thousand becomes 2000.
4. 8337: The digit sum is 8 + 3 + 3 + 7 = 21. This number rounded to the nearest thousand becomes 8000.
5. 9756: The digit sum is 9 + 7 + 5 + 6 = 27. This number rounded to the nearest thousand becomes 10000.
As we can see, there are three possible answers:
1. 2318, which is rounded to 2000.
2. 8337, which is rounded to 8000.
3. 9756, which is rounded to 10000.
Please note that there may be other numbers as well, but these are three possible answers within the given constraints.
