Given:
12.8
Round to the nearest whole number.
Solution:
In rounding numbers, it must be taken to note that if the number is greater than or equal to 5 then the succeeding number will be added by 1, hence if the number is less than 5, then the succeeding number will remain the same. Since we have the decimal 8 which is greater than 5, then we will add 1 to the whole number.
= 13
Final answer:
13
