2. Add 0.5 to the result.
Continuing with the example, 3/14 + 0.5 = 0.2142857 + 0.5 = 0.7142857.
3. Take the integer part of the result.
In this case, the integer part of 0.7142857 is 0.
4. If the original number is positive, round up to the next whole number if the decimal part is greater than or equal to 0.5. If the decimal part is less than 0.5, round down to the current whole number.
Since the original number (3/14) is positive and the decimal part (0.2142857) is less than 0.5, we round down to the current whole number, which is 0.
