Answer 2

Answer 3

You need to find the 6th place so that you know where the 7th place is. It's the value of the 7th place that determines the answer — if it is 0-4, you just copy what you have through the 6th place. If it is 5-9, you copy what you have through the 6th place, then adjust the 6th place up by 1 (which may adjust the other places as well).
