That's the same as rounding to the greatest place.
Sometimes it is advantageous to express a value in round numbers. To round to a particular place, look at the digit immediately to the right of the one you want to round to, in this case the second greatest place. If that digit is 4, 3, 2, 1 or 0, zero it and everything to the right of it out. If that digit is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, increase your target digit by one and zero everything to the right of it out. If your target digit is 9, it will become a zero and increase the digit to the left of it by one.

The number 61.75 has what a scientist would refer to as four significant digits. If you only were able to be accurate to a single digit, then you would approximate that amount to 60, or 6 times ten to the first power.

No.
It depends on the number of digits accuracy required. Round off to: 3 digits: 12.426 2 digits: 12.43 1 digit: 12.4 Round number: 12
