What you have to do is to add them up so £0.64 add £1.68 which is equal to £2.32 then you look at the number after the decimal which is three and two but if you were to do that that will be rounding to the first decimal place so you add a 0 at the end of 2 so because we can’t round up we round down so it is £2.32
