Rounding to the Nearest 10
Rounding is a way to simplify numbers. We round numbers to the nearest 10 by looking at the number to the right of the last digit. If the number to the right of the last digit is 5 or higher, round up. If the number to the right of the last digit is 4 or lower, round down. For example, if the number is 36, the number to the right of the last digit is 6. So, we round up and the number becomes 40.

Did you know?
Rounding to the nearest 10 is usually done using the 'rounding up' method, which means rounding any number to the next highest ten. In some countries such as Japan, the 'rounding down' method is used, meaning that numbers are rounded to the nearest multiple of 10 below. Rounding to the nearest 10 can also be done using a number line, which is a visual representation of the numbers that make up a range.
