From the book, Chapter 9. 47.649 is 47.65 to the cent, 47.6 to the tenth and 48 to the whole number; 2.45 to a tenth is 2.5 half up and 2.4 half to even. $100 ÷ 3: two people pay $33.33 and one pays $33.34. Three items at $0.99 with 7.25% tax: $3.18 taxed item by item, $3.19 on the total. 26 people at 8 to a car: 3.25, so 4 cars.
