Answer 2

each number is held by a place holder in the form of a number. the first digit to the left of the decimal holds the place for the ones, the second for the tens, and the third for the hundreds. the determination of rounding to a number depends on the digit before it. if that digit is 5-9 round up. in conculsion, 5403.264 would round to be 5400.000
