When 5,900 is rounded to the nearest thousand, it will be rounded off to 6,000.
When rounding off a number to the nearest thousand, you need to pay attention to the 'hundreds' number.
If the hundreds number is between 0 and 4, you round the entire number to the thousand number that is lower than the entire number. If the hundreds number is 5 and above however, you round up to the nearest highest thousand.
In this case, the hundreds number is '9'. The entire number should therefore be rounded up. The thousand number that is higher than 5,900 is 6,000 so the entire number will be rounded up to 6,000.
In conclusion, 5,900 to the nearest thousand is 6,000.
