AnswerClick to flip back
A
6000
💡 Explanation:
To round 6418 to the nearest thousand, look at the hundreds digit (which is 4). Since 4 is less than 5, we round down. Therefore, 6418 rounded to the nearest thousand is 6000, not 7000. The rule is: if the hundreds digit is 0-4, round down; if it's 5-9, round up.
