Respuesta :

The nearest thousand means "rounding of any decimal numbers to its nearest thousandth value."

Let's say that this number is x.

If we rounded x to the nearest thousand, it is 3,000.

So x>3,500

Then, if we rounded this number to the nearest hundred, which means "at the tens digit. If it is 5 or more, then round up. If it is 4 or less, then round down."

So x<3,250

Looking at the straight line, the correct location is P.
