Question

Rounding off 4.58500001 to the second decimal place will give:

A.

4.6

B.

4.58

C.

4.59

D.

4.585

Correct option is C


Given:
Number = 4.58500001 Required decimal place = Second
Formula Used:
If the digit after the required decimal place is 5 or more, round up the last retained digit by 1. Otherwise, keep it the same.
Concept:
When rounding numbers, if the digit immediately after the desired rounding position is 5 or higher, you typically round up. Here's a general rule for rounding:
(1) Look at the digit to the right of the desired rounding position. (2) If it's 5 or greater, round up by increasing the digit in the desired rounding position by 1. (3) If it's less than 5, simply truncate (cut off) the digits after the desired rounding position.
Solution:
4.58500001 = 4.5850000    ( ∴∴ 1<5 )
 4.5850000 =  4.585            ( ∴∴ 0<5 )
4.585 = 4.59                        ( ∴ 5=5 )
Final Answer: (c) 4.59
