Concepts Covered

While moving to the right across the places in a number, the digits represent smaller units. The rule for rounding to any place is to determine if the unit to the immediate right of the place value rounding to has a digit that is 4 or below. If so, the digits to the right of the place will be rounded to 0 and the digit remains the same. If the digit to the immediate right is 5 or greater, then the digits to the right are rounded to 0 and the digit being rounded moves up one consecutive number. Round to the tenth, hundredth as well as any whole number value.
