i think it is because it is the middle number through one through ten.. so why not! (:

7 will round up.
The tenth place in this case is the 2. You look at the number to the right of this which is a 5. If the number is 5 or above you round up if it is below 5 you round down. Since it is a 5 you would round 2 up to a 3. 0.3 is your answer(:
Personally, I have always been taught to round up. (ex. if an answer is 0.5, I usually round it to 1.)
if the unit digit ie the '3' in 53 is less than 5, round down - if the unit digit is 5 -9 you round up.. Examples... 41 - round down to 40 67 - round up to 70 59 - round up to 60 33 - round down to 30 56 - round up to 60 75 - round up to 80
It is rounded to 759 because the rule is when a # is greater than 5, round down and when a # is less than 5, round up.
