Anytime you're rounding with money, you must remember that the rules of rounding are not the same as if the numbers were just numbers.

Take for example that $124.05 is not the same as 124.05. If we were to round it to the nearest 10's, it would become $120.00. Hold up! If we rounded like that and went to the store, we would not have enough money to purchase the item. Therefore, we always round up with money. So, $124.05 would round to $130.00.

If you wanted to round to the nearest 10's with the amount $1.99, we would round to $10.00 not $0.
