Andrea claims that 2,899 rounded to the nearest hundred is 3,000. Zoe claims that 2,899 rounded to the nearest thousand is 3,000.

Which statement best explains who is correct?

A) Only Zoe is correct. The hundreds place rounds up to 9 and 2,899 rounded to the nearest thousand is 3,000.

B) Only Andrea is correct. Since the tens place is a 9, the thousands place increases by 1.

C) Neither Andrea nor Zoe is correct. The number 2,899 rounded to the nearest hundred is 2,800. The number 2,899 rounded to the nearest thousand is 2,000.

D) Both Andrea and Zoe are correct. The tens place and the hundreds place are both more than 5. So, 2,899 rounded to the nearest hundred or thousand is 3,000.
