In a standard bank account, any interest we earn is automatically added to our balance, and we earn interest on that interest in future years. This reinvestment of interest is called compounding.

It is not necessary to report a value to eight decimal places when the measures that generated that value were only accurate to the nearest tenth. Round off your final answer to one more decimal place than was present in the original data. This means that if you have data measured to the nearest tenth of a unit, report the final statistic to the nearest hundredth.

Mo...The digit immediately to the right of the tens digit, the round-off digit, is the indicator for this. The digit to the immediate right of the hundreds digit, the round-off digit, is the indicator. Most of the time, when we say "round to the nearest ____" we leave out the caveat "unless the number is exactly halfway between two values, in which case choose the larger one". This fact is merely something people decided.

Fr...The digit immediately to the right of the tens digit, the round-off digit, is the indicator for this. The digit to the immediate right of the hundreds digit, the round-off digit, is the indicator. From the observations made in the preceding examples, we can use the following method to round a whole number to a particular position. Since 7 is greater than 5, we round up by replacing 7 and all the digits to its right with zeros and adding 1 to the digit in the ten thousands position.
