What is the least and greatest original numbers of 460 by Tens
To determine if the number could be 468, we need to analyze the given rounding information.
When rounding to the tens place, the number becomes 460. This means that the original number is somewhere between 455 and 464.
When rounding to the hundreds place, the number becomes 500. This means that the original number is somewhere between 450 and 549.
Since the range 455 to 464 and the range 450 to 549 have an overlapping common range of 455 to 464, it is possible for the original number to be 468.
Therefore, 468 could be the number that meets both rounding conditions.
