Best Answer

It means estimating certain numbers to the nearest whole number.

For example, When you have a number like 335.788889999, you would not want to write the entire number or use that number for any of your arithmetic operations like addition or subtraction or multiplication ,etc. So in order to make it easier or for comfort, we round the numbers or estimate it to the nearest whole number. Now, that number can also be written as 336 and this is known as rounding of numbers.
