You can put this solution on YOUR website! when you round 19.36 what do you get
--------------
That depends on what you round down to.
--
19.36 is rounded down to the hundreth place
19.4 would be the number rounded down to the tenth place
19 would be the number rounded down to the units place
20 would be the number rounded to the tens place

You can put this solution on YOUR website! When you round, only look at the digit to the right of the one that
you are going to round. If that digit is
1) less than 5, round down
2) 5 or greater, round up
(Why does 5 always round up? Well, if the digit to the right of the
one we are rounding is 0,1,2,3, or 4, we have five numbers that round
down; then 5,6,7,8, or 9 are the five numbers that round up.)
Don't look more than one digit to the right of the one you are
rounding to.
In this problem for example, if you're rounding 19.36 to the nearest tenth place (that's the .3) the answer would be 19.4 because the 6 is greater than 5.
But if you're rounding to the nearest one your answer should be 19 because that .3 is less than 5.
Good luck.
