Rounding money or decimals

Rounding a price to the nearest pound is the same as rounding a decimal to the closest whole number.

If the price is 拢2.80 you can round up to 拢3 because the number in the tenths position is 8. The closest whole number to 2.8 is 3.

If the price is 拢2.08 you can round down to 拢2 because the number in the tenths position is 0. The closest whole number to 2.08 is 2.

Don't forget, if the number you are rounding is 5, round up. 拢2.50 rounded to the nearest pound is 拢3.
