Best Answer

To round prices to the nearest cent, look at the third decimal digit (for example, in $5.932, 2 is the third decimal digit). If it is 0-4, round down, keeping the first two digits of the decimal: $5.932 → $5.93. If it is 5-9, round up, raising the second digit by one: $5.938 → $5.94.

Note that if you already have some 9's, you may have to change other digits. $9.999 → $10.00.

Note: If this question is from work you have been assigned by a teacher or professor, I suggest you do the work yourself instead of trying to find the answers online. This will help you to better understand the material and become more familiar with it. Of course, if this question was not from homework, you can disregard this message.
