So let’s say your doing a problem like mine for instance:

Shelly buys 3 cabinets worth 40.89$
and a chair for 27.98$
But you do all the work in your head
And you come out with something like 50.089 now in cents you can’t have anything beyond three numbers after the decimal so what would you do in this instance?

And maybe do it on a paper
