well basicly you first write the number down and underline the first largest value number. Then look right of it. If that number is 5 or over the first number is raised by one and the other numbers become zero and if it is 4 or lower, the first number will stay the same and all other numbers will change to zero. Here is an example:
2,879,762
__________
Underline the 2 because it's largest
________
2,879,762
-
_________
Then the eight is greater than four so make the two a three
__________
3,879,762
_________

________

3,000,000 Is the answer
________
