Your whole number is to the left of the decimal point.  So to round it, look to see what the number to the right is.  If it's above 5, them round the whole number up.  If below 5, kep the whole number the same.  Your answer is, 638.

Answer:

638

Explanation:

We are asked to round 637.892 to the nearest whole number.

We know that when the next digit to rounded digit is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4; then we keep the same digit.

When the next digit to rounded digit is 5 or more than 5; then we round up our answer by one digit.

We can see that tenths value in our given number is 8, which is greater than 5, therefore, we will round up our answer to nearest whole number as:


637.892\approx 638

Therefore, 637.892 rounded to the nearest whole number would be 638.
