To round decimals to the nearest liter, you first need to determine the place value you are rounding to, in this case, the nearest liter. For example, if you have a decimal measurement of 5.75 liters, you would look at the hundredths place, which is the second decimal place. If the hundredths place is 5 or greater, you would round up to the next whole liter. In this case, 5.75 liters would round up to 6 liters when rounded to the nearest liter.

When rounding to a specific place, take a look at the digit immediately to the right of the target, in this case, the tenths place. If that digit is 4 or less, zero everything to the right of the target out. If that digit is 5 through 9, increase the target by one and zero everything to the right of it out. If the target is a 9, increasing it will turn it to zero and increase the digit to the left of the target by one.
