is that number greater than 5?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so that means we erase everything after the ones place to go from 652.94952 to 652
then we add 1 to the number to bump it up to 653. We do this because of that 9 is greater than 5
therefore, 652.94952 rounds to 653 when rounding to the ones place

thank u i allways get it confused cuz i think that when its lower than 5 it stays the same and every thing after it turns to 0 right?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
yeah IF you had something like 652.34, the 3 is less than 5 so you just erase everything after the ones place and leave it as it is
so 652.34 rounds to 652
