When you are rounding to the nearest hundred, look at the
tens place digit of the number.
If the tens digit is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, then the hundreds digit
does not change. You are rounding down.
If the tens digit is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, then the hundreds digit
increases by one. You are rounding up.
All the other digits after the hundreds digit (tens digit and
ones digit) go to zero in both cases.
