Answer :
Rounded to the nearest ten thousand, 15,677 would become 20,000. To be
rounded down to 10,000, the original number would need to be 14,999 or
lower.
For this case we have the following definition:
ten thousand place: number of 5 digits greater than zero.
Then, we have the following rounding rules:
1) If the previous number is greater than or equal to five, then the next number increases one unit.
2) If the previous number is less than five, then the next number stays the same
We have the following number:
15,677
Rounding off we have:
20,000
Answer:
15,677 to the nearest ten thousand is:
20,000
