Question 1
Round 10.34791 off to three decimal digits.
[1] 10,347
[2] 10,348
[3] 10,034
[4] 11,348
Answer:
[2] 10,348
You want to keep three digits, so the “7” will be the last digit. The next digit is “9”, which is more than
5. Add 1 to the “7” and drop the “91” part to get 10,348.
Question 2
Round 10.99458 off to two decimal digits.
[1] 11,00
[2] 10,00
