1. You look at the number you want to simplify
2. take the next number in order to find out how you round the number
1-4 the number stays the same, 5+ round up
example: 4.5357425353
- If you want to round to the nearest hundredth,
the hundredth is 3. So go to the next number, 5. Because the number is 5, you round up so the number becomes 4.54
- To round to the nearest ten-thousandths, you look at the ten-thousandths number, 7. Go to the next number, 4. Because the next number is 4, the number stays the same: 4.53574.

That depends on the type of problem and what the remander is.. But in some cases the remander is a fraction of a number.. Making it a decimal to simplify it
which mixed number or improper fraction is closest to the decimal 5.27?
You write that as 5 / 10, then simplify.(And if the decimal number has two decimal places - for example 0.72 - you put 100 in the denominator. If the decimal number has three decimal places, you put 1000 in the denominator, etc.)
