0-4 = round down

5-9 = round up

6 = round up

8 + 1 = 9

8.6 rounded to the nearest whole number is 9.

since the 6 is greater than 5, 8.6 rounds to 9

if the number AFTER the one you are rounding to is 5 or greater round up, if it's less than 5 round down

To round 8.6 to the nearest whole number, we look at the digit in the tenths place, which is 6. Since 6 is equal to or greater than 5, we round up. Therefore, 8.6 rounded to the nearest whole number is 9.
