2,605 rounded to the nearest hundred ... now find the number in the hundreds place ... it is the 6 ... now look at the number to the right of it ... if that number is 5 or above, u round the 6 to a 7 ... but if that number is 4 or below, that 6 stays the same. The number to the right of 6 is 0 ... so the 6 stays the same ... and ur answer is 2,600.
