Rounding Numbers (Year 5/6)
In KS2 Maths, we learn about rounding numbers. It's like deciding if a number should go up or down! If you're in Year Five or Six, you can round whole numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, or thousand. And guess what? We also round decimal numbers and fractions!
Rounding is like a secret code in maths. If a number is more than halfway, we round up; if it's less, we round down. This goes for whole numbers (like turning 32 into 30) and decimals (3.2 becomes 3). Even fractions get rounded – 2⁄5 goes down, but 3⁄5 goes up!
Test your rounding skills with a fun quiz!
