It's generally accepted that when rounding off numbers that if the first figure to be discarded is 5 or more, the previous figure is increased by 1. 176.625 therefore becomes 176.63 to 2 decimal places.
When rounding off 4.45, you look at the digit immediately to the right of the rounding position, which is 5 in this case. Since 5 is equal to or greater than 5, you round up the rounding position by adding 1 to it. Therefore, rounding off 4.45 to the nearest whole number would result in 5.
rounded to two decimal places after the decimal point: 6.73
Your 4.875 rounded off is 4.9 to one decimal. When rounding off to one decimal, we look at the second decimal. When the second decimal is 5 or more, we round the first decimal up by one. In this case, the second decimal is 7, and that means we round the first decimal, the 8, up by one, and that makes it 9. That's where the 4.9 came from.
To round off 4.73 to one decimal place, you would look at the digit in the second decimal place, which is 3. Since 3 is less than 5, you would keep the digit in the first decimal place the same. Therefore, rounding 4.73 to one decimal place would result in 4.7.

Rounding to the nearest hundredths is the same as rounding to 2 decimal places. In this case it is 100.00
rounding off 7.4625 to 2 decimal places = 7.46
Decimals are estimated by rounding off the decimal places to the nearest tenths,hundredths,thousandths,ten thousandths,etc.
Well, honey, to round 4.11 to one decimal, you look at the second decimal place, which is a 1. Since it's less than 5, you keep the first decimal place as it is. So, 4.11 rounded to one decimal is simply 4.1. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

You simple look at the decimal place you want to round to. In 1293.859649 we are rounding to two decimal places so we look at the second decimal place. Which is "5". Is the number on it's right, higher than a 4 or lower than 4? It's higher. So it rounds up. 1293.859649 to two decimal places is 129.86
The rule is - whatever number of decimal places you're rounding off to - look at the NEXT number... For example - round 23.456 to two decimal places. The number in the THIRD decimal place is 5 or more so you round UP to get 23.46. IF the number had been 23.454, you would round DOWN to yield 23.45.
698.70 Edit: When rounding up or down to decimal places - always look at the next digit. If it's between 0 & 4, you round down. If it's between 5 & 9, you round up (as in this case) Snakester1962 (Supervisor)
