Hi Sjonmarie:
Wow! That is a large number that you are playing with.
Starting at the decimal point, you go through the hundreds, thousands, and millions, before you get to the billions.
That is nine digits to the left of the decimal point.
The tenth digit to the left of the decimal is the first billion digit.
The next digit to the left is the 10 billion digit.
If you ignore all of the first nine digits, and
add the tenth digit to the rest of the number, and then
ignore the 10th digit of the result,
you will have
the number rounded to the nearest 10 billion.
Ta Da!
Not sure if this is your question, but, the way we usually round down from 5 and round up from 6. Example: 1.586 rounded to the nearest 100th would be 1.59 , rounded to the nearest 10th would be 1.6... get it?
So, in your example, it would be : 40.98 = nearest 100th , 41.00 = nearest 10th , seeing as the .9 rounded up to a whole number, thus 1 !!
