Question

How to round in math im confused

Answer 1

So rounding can be confusing but it can also be pretty easy

Here is an example:
 4556.78 round to the nearest whole number

So what I was taught to do is underline what you are rounding, in this case, the 7. After that you see if 7 I greater than 5, in this case, it is so your new answer would be 4557


 

Answer 2

If the number you are rounding is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, it goes to ten. If the numbers are 4, 3, 2, or 1, then round down. For example,, 37 is rounded to 40. 34 is rounded to 30.
