Given the value:

3.06

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. Before the whole number 3, we have 0 which is less than 5, therefore we will retain the value as it is.

= 3

Final answer: 

= 3
