Do the Math

We have collected 10,501.

Round that number to the nearest thousand.  Use that number to answer the following questions.

1.  What fraction of a million stamps have we collected?

2.  What percent of a million stamps have we collected?

3.  How many more times will we need to collect 10,000 stamps to reach our goal of one million?

Be sure to explain exactly how you arrived at your answer.
