Rounding numbers helps to simplify data interpretation, especially when dealing with lengthy decimals or when exact precision is not essential. The core principle: if the digit to the right of your rounding place is 5 or more, you round up; otherwise, you round down. For instance, to round 3.678 to the nearest tenth, look at the hundredths digit (7); since it’s ≥ 5, 3.678 becomes 3.7. Similarly, rounding 3.678 to the nearest hundredth yields 3.68. Rounding is widely used in financial transactions (rupee/cents rounding), scientific measurements, and everyday approximations for easier communication and calculation.
