Given:
68.52
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.
68 is the whole number, and before the decimal point we have 5, which is equal to the condition 5, hence we add 1 to the whole number.
= 68 + 1
= 69
Final answer:
D) 69
