How do you round 4.415625 mins to the nearest minute?

Answer 1

well it is 4 mins

was five or above it would be rounded to 5

so the answer would be 5 mins

but if it is four or less like this question

then you just round down

to 4 simples

Answer 2

Time To The Nearest Minute

Answer 3

Same as all other rounded numbers.



The number after the decimal is under 5, round down .



If the number after the decimal was 5 or higher, then round up.



4.415625 goes down to 4.



If it had been 4 min, 41 sec, then it would go up, since out of a possible 60 seconds, it was 41, which passes the half minute marker at 30 seconds. That would be something like 4.683333 seconds. Since it started in decimal format for you, just go by the standard rules.

Answer 4

You look at the number after the decimal, if its 5 or higher, you round up, but if its lower than 5 it stays the same.

4 minutes. If it was 4.5+ it'd be 5 minutes.
