Wouldn't this be an 83?

The way I learned to round, that second decimal (7) pushes the 4 up to a 5. Which, in turn, then pushes the 83 up to an 84. |

Ah...
I mean it's whatever but rounding for me was typically just done with the first digit. Or taking the next two digits and looking at it this way:
47 < 53 --> round down
But 83 v 84 isn't a big deal

You definitely don't round multiple times for one number. Would 1.44444444444444444444444444444444445 round up to 2? It's obviously closer 1 than 2. Here is a rounding calculator.*Insert joke about the American education system* |

Yeah I learned to round down in that situation

Here is a rounding calculator.*Insert joke about the American education system*I would also make 1.44444444 = 1 Because every one of those 4's rounds down, not up. It's entirely possible I was taught "correctly" but I'm an idiot, lmao I gotta look into this, I legit feel embarrassed |

Basically, here's what I'm asking / wondering:
If I was rounding to the tenths place, it would be 83.5, correct? So, doesn't 83.5 become 84 in our system?
My brain does this, with our number (83.47857)
83.47857 = 83.4786
83.4786 = 83.479
83.479 = 83.48
83.48 = 83.5
83.5 = 84
Maybe when you're going into the ones place, you're just not supposed to do any of that? lol. But that's legit how my brain has always processed these things. I am more than happy to learn the proper way, just sort of surprised it never happened for me at school haha.

So, I guess just the one number to the right of what you're ultimately ending up with, is all that matters? I do not think I was ever taught that.
Thanks, education system.
- If the digit in the next smallest place value is less than five (0, 1, 2, 3, or 4), you leave the digit you want to round to as-is. Any digits after that number (including the next smallest place value you just looked at) become zeros, or drop-off if they're located after the decimal point. This is called rounding down.
- If the next smallest place value is greater than or equal to five (5, 6, 7, 8, or 9), you increase the value of the digit you're rounding to by one (+1). Just like before, any remaining digits before the decimal point become zeros, and any that are after the decimal point are dropped. This is called rounding up.

LOL I don't trade Amare Tobias Harris and he drops in a lower thread. OK.

I've never rounded for any digit besides the very first number after the decimal |

Only look at the next number to the right and that's it. Keep it simple Edit. You can always use =ROUND(number, 0) in excel, which does the same |
