How do you round to the first number?
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 number. 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.

How do you round decimals to the nearest ten?
The key to rounding any number to the nearest ten does not use the decimals at all. In fact, you only need to check the digit in the ones place. If the number in the ones digit is below 4, then round down. If the number in the ones digit is 5 or larger, round up. Some Examples: 563 ---> 560 - The ones digit is a three, you round down 27 ---> 30 - The ones digit is above five, you round up 145 ---> 150 - The ones digit is a five, you round up 890 ---> 890 - The ones digit is a zero, you do nothing because it is already a ten.
