To "round" means that you slightly alter a number to bring it to a more even quantity. It is possible to round to any place value. If you were rounding to the nearest ten, anything greater than or equal to five but less than ten would round to ten and anything less than five but greater than zero would round to zero. This is a general rule that holds true regardless of place value.
