Rounding Decimals (write these
examples in your notebook.)Round the decimal to the place value of the yellow
digit.
3.23 ------> 3.2, The digit to the right of 2 is 3, so round down.
6.485 ------> 6.49, The digit to the right of 8 is 5, so round up.
2.83619 -----> 2. 836, The digit to the right of the 6 is 1, so round down.
5.961 -----> 6.0, The digit to the right of 9 is 6, so round up. This causes the 5 to become a 6.

Write this in your notebook:
Rounding Small Numbers: You can round a very small number to the place value of its leading digit to help make it easier to understand. In a decimal, the leading digit is the first nonzero digit as you read from left to right.
![Page 29: 3.4 rounding decimals](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061210/548e97e0b479599a358b4d72/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Rounding to the Leading Digit (you do not need to
copy this) A guitar was created that is 0.0003937 inch long.
Round the length of the guitar to the place value of the leading digit.
To Solve: The first nonzero digit as you read 0.0003937 from left to right is 3 and it is in the ten-thousandths place.
You should round the digit to the nearest ten thousandth. Because 9 is to the right of the ten-thousandth’s place, round 3 up to 4.
Answer the length rounded to the leading digit is 0.0004 inch.
