The rule of rounding a number is:
If 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 follow the number, then no need to change the rounding digit.
If 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 follow the number, then rounding digit rounds up by one number
Find the right digit to the thousand place. i.e 4 Here
4 is less than 5 so no need to change the rounding digit
38,496 = 38,000 Therefore, we get 38,000 when rounded to the nearest thousand.
