Answer 2

119.63 rounded to the nearest whole number is 120.

A whole number is NOT a decimal so to answer this, look to the number in the tenths place because it is next to the number you are rounding off to in the ones place and determine whether or not it is less than five. If it is less than five, the number in the ones place remains the same; if it is greater than or equal to five, it goes up. In this case, 6>5, so you round up.

Since the number in the ones place is 9, it becomes a zero and the number in the tens place becomes a 2 so you are one number higher than 119. The final answer is 120.
