when the thermomter used mecury comes to nearest
When measuring to the nearest quarter of an inch, the greatest possible error is half of the smallest unit of measurement, which is an eighth of an inch (0.125 inches). This means that the actual measurement could be up to 0.125 inches more or less than the measured value. Therefore, the range of possible values for any given measurement extends from 0.125 inches below to 0.125 inches above the measured value.
Yes, of course, you lose more precision if you round to a half inch. Try rounding 0.76 to the nearest half unit, and to the nearest quarter unit, and see what happens.
The distance to a star.
If measured top the nearest centimetre then the answer is 0.5 cm.

380 rounded to the nearest 10th 400 rounded to the nearest 100th
Its radius is 4.8 cm, rounded to the nearest tenth.
86499.99... to the nearest thousand 86049.99... to the nearest hundred 86004.99... to the nearest ten etc Personally, I would advise that 86500 is rounded down to 86000 so as to avoid rounding bias but to many school teachers rounding bias is too complicated to explain to youngsters.
