396249 Remember '9' = units '4' = tens '2' = hundreds '6' = thousands '9' = tens of thousands '3' = hundreds of thousands. To the nearest 'ten thousand', we inspect the 'thousands' , which is '6'. Since it is '5' or greater, then we add '1' to the ten thousand place. So we add '1' to '9' (ten thousand place) which makes '10' to equal '40' . Or we add '1' to '39' , which makes '40'. Hence to the nearest ten thousand it is 40,000
