Choose a decimal precision from whole number up to 4 decimal places, or even round to the tens, hundreds, or thousands place. Enter any number and the four results appear instantly.

Rounding Methods Explained

Ceiling: always rounds up. Floor: always rounds toward βˆ’βˆž. Round: rounds to nearest (β‰₯ 0.5 up, < 0.5 down). Truncate: drops the extra digits toward 0. Example: 2.7 β†’ ceil 3, floor 2, round 3, truncate 2. For βˆ’2.7 β†’ ceil βˆ’2, floor βˆ’3, round βˆ’3, truncate βˆ’2.

Frequently Asked Questions
