okay so the number is 178.8666. where is the thousandth spot you may ask? it would be after the decimal, but where? well the first spot after the decimal (8) is the tenths. the second place (6) is the hundredth. the third place (6) is the thousandth.

Great! we found the thousandth spot. next, is the number after the thousandth spot a) greater than 4 or b) less than 4? if the number is greater than 4, you add one number to the thousandth spot (the number would then be 178.867). if the number is 4 or less, you leave the thousandth number the same (the number would then be 178.866).


wow! you just learned how to round! wasn't that a first grade tool?
