Question

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the thousands place

In the number 4,690, the digit in the thousands place is 4, and the digit to the right of it (in the hundreds place) is 6.

Step2: Apply rounding rule

Since the digit in the hundreds place (6) is 5 or greater, we round up the digit in the thousands place. So we increase 4 by 1 to get 5 and set the digits to the right to 0.
