Depends. If you are selling you round the quantity down and price up and if buying vice versa.
rounding whole numbers and decimals
Estimating sumsUse rounded numbers to estimate sums.Example 1Give an estimate for the sum of 19.61 and 5.07 by rounding to the nearest tenth.Round each number to the nearest tenth.Example 2Estimate the sum of 19.61 + 5.07 by rounding to the nearest whole number.Round each number to a whole number.Estimating differencesUse rounded numbers to estimate differences.Example 3Give an estimate for the difference of 12.356 - 5.281 by rounding to the nearest whole number.Round each number to the nearest whole number.Now subtract.So 12.356 - 5.281 ≈ 7.Estimating productsUse rounded numbers to estimate products.Example 4Estimate the product of 4.7 × 5.9 by rounding to the nearest whole number.Round each number to a whole number.So 4.7 × 5.9 ≈ 30.Again, in decimals, as in whole numbers, if both multipliers end in .5, or are halfway numbers, rounding one number up and one number down will give you a better estimate of the product.Example 5Estimate the product of 7.5 × 8.5 by rounding to the nearest whole number.You can also round the first number down and the second number up and get this estimate.In either case, your approximation will be closer than it would be if you rounded both numbers up, which is the standard rule.Estimating quotientsUse rounded numbers to estimate quotients.Example 6Estimate the quotient of 27.49 ÷ 3.12 by rounding to the nearest whole number.Round each number to the nearest whole number.
Is the rounding is skidding
It is - if you use appropriate rounding. Rounding does not have to be to whole numbers.
Add your whole numbers
Bob Sinclar invented rounding. :) Hope this was helpful. :]
The best estimate for 83.74 plus 2.93 can be found by rounding each number to the nearest whole number. Rounding 83.74 to the nearest whole number gives us 84, and rounding 2.93 to the nearest whole number gives us 3. Adding these rounded numbers together gives us an estimate of 84 + 3 = 87.
By rounding off.
An estimate is an educated guess based on prior knowledge. Rounding off is knowing the exact value but rounding it to the nearest whole number.
by rounding off the numbers
i have no idea,, maybe 16
An estimate of 8.99 would be 9, as it is the closest whole number to 8.99. When estimating numbers, it is common practice to round to the nearest whole number for simplicity. In this case, rounding 8.99 to the nearest whole number results in 9.
