What is Rounding Numbers?
Rounding a number means the process of making a number simpler such that its value remains close to what it was. The result obtained after rounding off a number is less accurate, but easier to use. While rounding a number, we consider the place value of digits in a number.
There are some basic rules that need to be followed for rounding numbers.
- We first need to know what our rounding digit is. This digit is the one that will ultimately be affected.
- After this, we need to check the digit to the right of this place which will decide the fate of the rounding digit.
- If the digit to the right is less than 5, we do not change the rounding digit. However, all the digits to the right of the rounding digit are changed to 0.
- If the digit to the right is 5 or more than 5, we increase the rounding digit by 1, and all the digits to the right of the rounding digit are changed to 0.
