Part 4: Explain Your Thinking

A sample explanation for rounding to the nearest ten:

"To round a number to the nearest ten, look at the ones digit:

• If it’s 0–4, round down (keep the tens digit the same and change the ones digit to 0).
• If it’s 5–9, round up (add 1 to the tens digit and change the ones digit to 0).

For example, if I have 47 witch hats, the ones digit is 7, so I round up:
47 → 50."
