How do you round off 2.65985 to the nearest thousandths?

Answer 1

It is: 2.660

Answer 2

The thousandths place is the third decimal in a number. So you look at the fourth decimal. If it's between 0-4, you chop it off, end of story. If it's between 5-9, you chop it off anyway, but you add 1 to the third decimal. Examples : 3.12345. The fourth decimal is 4. Result : 3.123. 8.78596. The fourth decimal is 9. Result : 8.786 (notice it's not 8.785). If you have to add 1 to the third decimal and it's a 9, it becomes 0, and you have to add 1 to the second decimal. If it's a 9 too, it becomes 0, and you have to add 1 to the first decimal. And so on. Examples : 6.12981. The fourth decimal is 8. Result : 6.130. 5.49962. The fourth decimal is 6. Result : 5.500. 2.99988. The fourth decimal is 8. Result : 3.000. 9.99999. The fourth decimal is 9. Result : 10.000.
