Rounding Off Decimals
Metric measurements in decimals are often long
numbers. They must often be rounded off to a
convenient number of digits. In this text, most
metric dimensions are either whole millimeter or
two-places decimals that have been rounded off.
If the first number to be eliminated is less than 5, simply drop it (and the
number to the right of it) and let the last significant digit stand.

EXAMPLE: Round off 25.4 mm to whole millimeter.

Solution: Simply drop the .4

Answer: 25

EXAMPLE: Round off 0.3125 into two significant digits.

Solution: The first number to be eliminated is 2: Simply


drop it and all numbers to its right(5)

Answer: 0.31
If the number to be eliminated is 5 or more, drop the number, then add one
to the last digit retained.

EXAMPLE:
A. Round off 78.6 into its nearest ones.

Solution: The number to be rounded off is 6 which is greater than 5, drop 6


and add one to the last digit retained.

Answer: 79

B. Round off 92.65 into its nearest tenths.

Solution: The number to be rounded off is 5, drop 5 and add one to 6 which is
the last digit retained.

Answer: 92.7
CONVERSION OF DECIMALS TO
FRACTIONS

A decimal is changed to a fraction by using 10 or any power of 10 as


denominator of the given decimal. Then reduce to lowest term when
possible.

Millimeters Equivalent of Decimals and Fractions of an Inch
REMEMBER

Look at the place values, the further


the digit is to the left,
the greater is its value.
