- Rounding 1234.567 to 2 decimal places using "round half away from zero".
- The rounding step is 0.01, so the neighbours are 1234.56 and 1234.57.
- 1234.567 / 0.01 = 123456.7, which the rule sends to 123457.

What the Round to the Nearest Hundredth calculates
Rounds a number to a chosen number of decimal places, a named place value, the nearest multiple, or a number of significant figures, under any of the standard tie-breaking rules including half away from zero and banker's half-to-even, and estimates a sum by rounding every addend to a place value before adding them.
How to use this Round to the Nearest Hundredth
Enter Number to round and Tie-breaking / direction rule. Rounded value updates as you type. Change one figure at a time to see what drives the result.
How the result is worked out
Open “How this is worked out” beside the result for the step-by-step calculation behind Rounded value, Rounded value (formatted) and Rounded minus original.
The method follows IEEE Std 754-2019, Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic, §4.3 Rounding-direction attributes (roundTiesToEven, roundTowardZero, roundTowardPositive, roundTowardNegative) and NIST Special Publication 811, Guide for the Use of the International System of Units, Appendix B.7 "Rounding converted numerical values".
