Hint: .5 = .50 = .500 = .5000
When rounding to the nearest second, you have to check the numbers that come after the decimal(5.89) to see if you should round up or down.
If the number in the tenths column is 5 or more (i.e. 4.5, 3.8, 4.9, 1.7, 2.6), you have to round up. If the number in the tenths column is less than 5(i.e. 1.2, 9.3, 7.4, 9.1, 2.0), you have to round down.
Ex:
57.28 = 57.00
Why? Because .28 is less than .5 and if the number in the tenths column is less than 5(i.e. 1.2, 9.3, 7.4, 9.1, 2.0), you have to round down.
Rounding up means that 1 more full second is added to the whole seconds and the numbers that come after the decimals removed.
Ex:
52.85 = 33.00 (=52.85 + 1 - .85)
Rounding down means that the whole seconds (the numbers before the decimal) stay the same, no whole seconds are added, and the numbers that come after the decimals removed.
Ex:
57.28=57.00 (=57.28 + 0 - .28)
Basically, you round to the nearest whole second based on these rules:
- If the numbers that come after the decimal are .5/.50 or higher, you round up
- if the numbers that come after the decimal are less that .5/.50, you round down
Ex:
57.28=57.00 because the numbers that come after the decimal are less than 0.50
.28<.50
To round to the nearest second, you look at the number of milliseconds. If the milliseconds are 500 or more, you round up to the next second. If the milliseconds are less than 500, you keep the current second. For example, if you have 3.750 seconds, you would round to 4 seconds, but if you have 3.249 seconds, you would round to 3 seconds.

What is 564 rounded to the nearest hundred and the nearest tenth?
Round up to the nearest hundred - 600 (because the two number after the hundred are 50 or more). I take it the second part of the question refers to the nearest ten, as the nearest tenth would be a decimal place. Round down to the nearest ten - 560 (because the unit is less than 5).

How do you round 56.389 to the nearest tenth of a second?
To round 56.389 to the nearest tenth of a second, we first need to understand that a tenth of a second is one decimal place after the decimal point. In this case, the digit in the tenths place is 8. Since 8 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up the digit in the tenths place to the next higher number, which makes 56.389 rounded to the nearest tenth of a second equal to 56.4.

Can you Round 0.585 to the nearest hundredth?
To round 0.585 to the nearest hundredth, we look at the third decimal place, which is 5. Since 5 is equal to or greater than 5, we round up the second decimal place. Therefore, 0.585 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 0.59.
