    Answer is 248,700

    248,682 broken down into places from left to right is

    2 - hundred thousands place

    4 - ten thousands place

    8, - thousands place

    6 - hundreds place

    8 - tens place

    2 - ones place

    So for rounding, 248,682, I have bolded the 6 in the hundred place. We want to round to nearest hundred.

    If the digit after the hundreds place is greater than or equal to five, we round the hundreds place up by one digit. Else we leave it alone. Then everything after the hundreds place becomes a zero.

    248,682 ⇒ 248,700

    Answer is 248,700
