Answer:

14.2 or 14

Explanation:

All numbers 5 and up round up and all numbers 4 down round down.

Rounding in decimals works like this:

14.176 can be rounded to 14.2

Why?

The 6 is above 5 so that adds a point to the 7 making it 8. Same for the 7 (now 8 but that won't make a difference) so that adds a point to the 1 making it 2. So the new decimal is 14.2

That .2 doesn't round up so to be really simple and make it a whole number you can get rid of it however if this was used for an equation you wouldn't get a completely accurate answer.
