Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To round off a number to the nearest 10, follow these steps:

1. Identify the digit in the tens place. In the number 53, the digit in the tens place is 5.

2. Look at the digit to the right of the tens place. In this case, there is no digit to the right of 5.

3. If the digit to the right of the tens place is 5 or greater, you increase the digit in the tens place by 1. If it is less than 5, you leave the digit in the tens place as it is.

4. In 53, there is no digit to the right of 5, so we don't need to change the digit in the tens place. Therefore, 53 rounded to the nearest 10 is still 50.

So, the answer is 50.
