OpenStudy (anonymous):

think about it this way

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if its 5 or greater you round up if its 4 or lower you round down

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so your first answer is 78

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now what is 69.75 rounded up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

69.80 or 60.80?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it would be 70 cause your rounding to the nearest whole number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh ok give me another one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what is 78-70 or 70 plus what equals 78

OpenStudy (anonymous):

78-70 is 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):
