Rounding a decimal to the nearest whole number
If you have a decimal that is greater than or equal to 5 in the tenths place then you round up. Ex: 5.8 would be rounded to 6, 1.5 would be rounded to 2.
If you have a decimal that is less than or equal to 4 in the tenths place then you round down. Ex: 5.1 would be rounded 5, 1.2 would be rounded to 1.
Since 0 is in the tenth’s place we round down to 7.
