How To Round Decimals?

Identify the digit in the place you want to round to

Look at the digit immediately to the right

If that digit is 5 or greater, increase the rounding digit by 1

If that digit is less than 5, keep the rounding digit the same

Drop all digits to the right of the rounding place

If rounding to a whole number, round to the nearest integer

If rounding to a decimal place, keep only the required number of decimal digits

If the rounding digit is 9 and must increase, carry 1 to the left

Repeat carrying as needed if multiple digits become 10

Check the final rounded value for correctness
