Rounding to "X" places means looking at the digit in the X+1 place and, if it is 5 of more adding 1 to the digit in X place. If it is less than 5 the digit in X place is left untouched. In this case.... 0.00033 has five decimal places. The third digit is 0, so the second digit is left as it is. This means that 0.00033 is 0.00 rounded to two decimal places (or, "correct to two decimal places").
A decimal number is simply a representation of a number such that the place value of each digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. It gives no information as to the location of the decimal point and so the number of decimal places.
3.14159 to 5 decimal places. As the the 5th digit after the decimal place is a 9 when quoting to 4 decimal places the 4th digit is rounded up so Pi to 4 decimal places is: 3.1416 If you put it that way... 3.14159265358979323 So technically I am right but, If you round it up you get 3. Just little 3
The decimal point of a number separates the whole part of the number from the fractional part of the number. It is located between the units column and the tenths column of every number. A decimal place is one of the digits after the decimal point: The first decimal place is the first digit, which is the tenths digit The second decimal place is the second digit, which is the hundredths digit The third decimal place is the third digit, which is the thousandths digit etc. When showing or rounding to a number of decimal places there will be that number of digits after the decimal place. eg the number 5.671 has three decimal places as there are three digits after the decimal point and the second decimal place, for example, contains the digit 7.
There are 5 - unless one of the multiplicands ends in 5 and the last digit of the other is even.
4.832 rounded to two decimal places is 4.83 because the digit of 2 is less than the digit of 5

The thousands digit is 4 left of the decimal point and the ones digit is the digit to the left of the decimal point. In a whole number the decimal point is not written and can be considered as "hiding" after the last digit - the ones digit.

The fourth digit to the right of the decimal is the ten-thousandths place.

The digit at the fourth decimal place is 5. The next digit, 7 is bigger than 5 and so the digit at the fourth decimal place must be rounded up - to 12.4286
There are 5 - unless one of the multiplicands ends in 5 and the last digit of the other is even.
It is 0.06 when rounded to two decimal places because the digit 1 is less than 5
16.2 16 digit numbers and 2 digit decimal places.
Move 2 decimal places to the left from the starting point to get: 8.35652 x 10² The exponent is positive because the leading digit occurs in the hundreds place!
