Rounding Decimals
Rounding decimals means making a number simpler but keeping its value close to what it was. To round, look at the digit to the right of the one you want to round to. If it's 5 or greater, add 1 to the digit you want to round to. If it's 4 or less, just leave the digit you want to round to as it is.
