When needing to round, always look to the number exactly to the right of the place value you wish to round.

In our case we have ones, tenths, hundredths, and thousandths. One is the whole number in our problem and the number we're going to be rounding to. So we need to look at the place value to the right which is our tenths.

The rules of rounding are pretty straightforward. If the place value to the right of the number you want to round to is 5 or more you round up. (1.5 goes to 2. 2.8 goes to 3.0) If the place value is 4 or less you round down. (1.4 goes to 1, 2.3 goes to 2.0).

1.8 since the 8, which is the place value to the right of the number we want to round, is greater than 5 we round up. 1.8 becomes 2.0.

So 1.875 rounded to the nearest whole number is 2.0. (We removed the insignificant digits.)

When determining the mass of an atom the electron are not considered why can scientists disregard the electrons?

Usually they are measuring just the necleus of the atom since it would be a whole number. This is called finding the Mass number. The atomic weight is the whole atom together, which is a whole lot of decimals. So they take the atomic weight and round it to a whole number for the mass number. For example, Boron (an element on the table) has an atomic weight of 10.811. But scientists round the number upward to 11 to be the Mass number.
