Rounding Decimals (To any place)

The video tutorial explains how to round decimal numbers to any place value. It covers the basic rules of rounding, which involve examining the digit to the right of the place value being rounded. If this digit is 5 or greater, the number is rounded up; otherwise, it remains the same. The tutorial provides several examples, including rounding to the nearest hundredth, tenth, and a more complex example involving multiple carries. The video concludes by emphasizing the importance of zeros as placeholders in whole numbers.
