So I put, 8.456

satellite73:

i mean yes, rounded

Luna:

if I were to truncate it, would I round up the whole thing to 9?

satellite73:

i think "trunkate" just means lop off everything after the third decimal

satellite73:

or rather "truncate"

Luna:

Oooh, 8.455 is the answer then?

satellite73:

yes

Luna:
