What is 45 rounded to the nearest ten?

Answer

45 rounded to the nearest ten is
50

Nearest ten — the ones digit decides: 5⁠–⁠9 round up, 0⁠–⁠4 keep; digits to the right become 0.

Exactly halfway between 40 and 50 — equally close to both. The halfway rule rounds away from zero, as in school and Excel ROUND: 50. Round half to even (banker's rounding) gives 40.
