Step-by-step explanation:
Any number can be rounded to its nearest number depending on the number followed after decimal point. With consideration of this statement, if the number followed by decimal point is 5 or more than 5 , the number before decimal point can be rounded as 1 more than the actual number rather if the number followed by decimal point is less than 5 , the number before the decimal point remains the same. it can also be applicable for rounding the numbers after the decimal point . For example for the given questions let we see the respective anwers :-
(i) 96.798
96.80
96.8
97
(ii) 125.019
125.02
