Hi there,

First let us revise the rounding rules before getting down to the process of rounding :

  • if the number you're rounding to is followed by a number from 0 to 4, then you drop that number.
  • if the number you're rounding to is followed by a number that's 5 or more, you add 1 to that number.


\sf{763.9 \ to \ the \ nearest \ whole \ number :}\\\hfill\stackrel{\small\text{add 1 }}{3^(+1)}.\\\hfill\stackrel{\small\text{drop it}}{9}}


\sf{763.9\approx764}
