and everything after the rounding place 
Let's try a couple
stays the same
turns to zero
43472
Find the thousands place
Look at the number to the right
Round this number to the nearest thousands
Since that number is 4, then the thousands place
and everything after the rounding place 
Let's try a couple
stays the same
turns to zero
43000
Find the hundredth place
Round this number to the nearest hundredths

12.580
Look at the number to the right
And turn the rest to zeros
Find the hundredth place
Since that number is a 6, we will round up
Round this number to the nearest hundredths
but since the zeros are after the decimal
we don't write them
