To round a number to the nearest hundred thousands, we need to check the digit in the ten thousands position:
1- If this digit is less than 5 , we will round down. This means that the digit in the hundred thousands position will remain the same and all digits after it will be converted to zeroes
2- If this digit is equal to or greater than 5 , we will round up. This means that we will add one to the digit in the hundred thousands position and convert all digit after it to zeroes
Now, the given number is:
89,659
The digit in the hundred thousands position is 0
The digit in the ten thousands position is 8 which is greater than 5. Therefore, we will round up following rule 2 written above
This means that 89,659 rounded to the nearest hundred thousands would be 100,000
Hope this helps :)

When rounding 89,659 to the nearest hundred thousand, we check the ten thousand's position, which is 8 . Since 8 is greater than 5 , we round up the hundred thousand's position from 0 to 1 , resulting in 100,000 . Thus, the final answer is 100,000.
