A decimal number is simply a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. So, a decimal number will always round to a decimal number.
The answer depends on the situation. You could round the answer so that it does not have more significant figures than any of the components which went into calculating it.
There doesn't always have to be two numbers after the decimal. If you are asked to round to the nearest hundreth, then use two places after the decimal. If you are asked to round to the nearest thousandth, then use 3 places after the decimal. If you are asked to round to the nearest tenth, then use 1 place after the decimal. If you are not told where to round, then it is up to you. One common way of doing it is to use significant figures. In other words, if you are dividing two numbers to get a decimal; count the number of significant figures in the divisor and the dividend. Whichever one has the least number of significant figures, use that number of significant figures in your answer. For example: 30.5 / 1.3456789 30.5 has the least number of significant figures; so use 3 significant figures in your answer. Answer: 22.7 If you are working with money, then always use two numbers after the decimal. For example: Add $30.15 + $201.25 Answer: $231.40
round off to nearest one hundredth; for example 1.444444.. = 1.44

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)
