Q

What are the three rules for rounding?

A

Step 1: identify the digit in the place you want to round to.
Step 2: Look at the digit to the right, if it is 5 or greater, increase the digit in the place being rounded by one ( round up). Otherwise, keep that digit the same ( round down).
Step 3: write zeros in the places to the right of the digit that was rounded.
