To round 563 to the nearest thousand, we look at the hundreds place, which is 5 in this case. Since 5 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up the hundreds place to the next thousand, making it 1,000. Therefore, rounding 563 to the nearest thousand gives us 1,000.
To round off 563 to the nearest tens place, we look at the digit in the ones place, which is 3. Since 3 is less than 5, we keep the tens place digit the same and change all digits to the right to zero. Therefore, rounding 563 to the nearest tens place gives us 560.
all the numbers through 564 to 652 are all inbetween 563 and 653
Sometimes it is advantageous to express a value in round numbers. To round to a particular place, look at the digit immediately to the right of the one you want to round to. If that digit is 4, 3, 2, 1 or 0, zero it and everything to the right of it out. If that digit is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, increase your target digit by one and zero everything to the right of it out.
