I'm thinking you want to know how to round to the nearest decimal.

but...we need to know what decimal place you need to round to.

 

Here's a pretty general rule that you could apply to your current problem:

If a number is 5 or more, you round up, if it is 4 or less, you round down.

 

Here's an example:

Round 16.73267541232 to the nearest hundredth.

16.70           ---3, (the number that originally was after 7) is less than 4, so we round it down to zero.

 

This could also be written as just

16.7
