-22.6rounded to the nearest hundredth

It's already rounded to the nearest tenth, which is less precise than
if it were rounded to the nearest hundredth. There is no way to make 
a given number more precise than it already is.  Just as you can make 
a string shorter but not longer, you can make a number less precise but
not more precise.
