What is 50 rounded to the nearest hundred?

Answer

50 rounded to the nearest hundred is
100

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

Exactly halfway between 0 and 100 — equally close to both. The halfway rule rounds away from zero, as in school and Excel ROUND: 100. Round half to even (banker's rounding) gives 0.
