    Say you have a number like 12.3458.

    Rounding to the nearest decimal means giving the closest possible number with a tenth precision.

    Basically, here's what you do:

    if the number after the tenth is between 0 and 4, just truncate to the tenth. For instance, 12.3458 - > 12.3

    If it's between 5 and 9, truncate to the tenth and add 0.1 : for instance, 256.842351 - > 256.9

    Or, 23.9762 - > 24.0
