Answer 33

Answer 34

2.49 .. you look one number to the right of what place you want to round to.. if its a 5 or above round up. if its not round down

Answer 35

tyler i want to hear ragingsquirrels great method of rounding just waiting for her to answer

Answer 36

Why don't you round of first to 2.5 and than to 3 ?!...... That's how some teachers used to round of grades, I liked it ><

Answer 37

So if your number was 0.49, 49 is under 50 so that would round down to $0.
If it was 0.50 or over, it would round up.

Answer 38

Did that help?
Also i'm a dude...

Answer 39

haha dayboo3 whatever ragingsquirrel has taught you previously please forget everything, im only saying it for your own good

Answer 40

sorry *his

Answer 41

lemme draw up some examples

Answer 42

please dont bother your wrong in the way you do rounding

Answer 43

Ok, if the cents are above 49, you round up to the next dollar. lets say i was trying to round $20.32. 32 is under 50, so the answer would be $20.00. BUT, lets say it was $20.65? 65 is over 49 so the answer would be $21.00. Anyone care to back me up on this?

Answer 44

i disagree

Answer 45

how?

Answer 46

can see if answer right

Answer 47

you start with the last decimal point
lets use 2.49 as an example

so we start with 9 and 9
if the number is 5 or over you round up, which 9 is so you round up and get 1 added onto the next number in line
which is 4
4 turns to 5 because 9 get rounded up
and because of the rule i stated before 5 or over gets rounded up
5 will also get rounded up giving youuuuuu
$3 !

remember to click good answer :)

Answer 48

No, that would be rounding up cents. She only asked for the number to be rounded up to the nearest dollar.

Answer 49

rounding up cents also means rounding up dollars because thats what it does in the end

Answer 50

ALL she wanted was the dollars to be rounded up. Nothing else.

Answer 51

THAT involves in rounding the cents up, even your wrong way of doing it involes in cents being rounded up and down
