hi, what is the least possible number, when rounded will become 1,000,000? would it be 999,999?

No. That's the greatest possible number.

To what place are you rounding?

i thought the greatest possible number was 1,499,999...

Are you rounding to the nearest million?

yes, rounding to the nearest million.

Ahh!! Thanks for clarifying.

The least possible number that rounds to 1 million is 950,000

ok -- so it wouldn't be 949,999 or something like the greatest possible number but the reverse?

can you explain to me how i get to that answer?

Ooops -- since you're rounding to the nearest million, then the least number is 450,000

450,000

the answer is 450,000
