Answer:
24,200,000
Step-by-step explanation:
First we write the number using digits.
Twenty-four Million one hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred seventy four
24,000,000
Twenty-four Million one hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred seventy four
24,199,000
Twenty-four Million one hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred seventy four
24,199,974
The number is 24,199,974.
Now we round it off to the nearest thousand place.
The thousands digit is the 4th digit from the right, the second 9 from the right, shown in bold below.
24,199,974.
The digit to the right of the 9 in the thousands place is another 9. That means we round up.
Change the 3 digits at the right to 0.
24,199,000
Now 199,000 must round up to the nearest thousand above 199,000. That is 200,000.
The final answer is
24,200,000
