| Number | 5 | |
| Rounded Number | 1 | 0 |
- 0 is in the tens place and 5 is in the ones place
- Since the digit in the ones place (5) is greater than or equal to 5, add 1 to the digit in the tens place (0)
- 1 + 0 = 1, so the digit in the tens place becomes 1
- 0 replaces the (5) in the ones place
- 5 rounded to the nearest ten = 10
