6.75 is bigger than 6.4999999999...........................
Therefore it is closer to 7 than to 6
To round the amount of time to the nearest hour, we need to determine whether the decimal portion of the time is closer to zero or one hour.
In this case, Cassandra spends 6.75 hours each day at school. The decimal portion is 0.75, which is closer to one hour than to zero hours.
To round 6.75 hours to the nearest hour, we add 0.5 to the time and then take the integer value of the result. Adding 0.5 to 6.75 gives us 7.25. Taking the integer value of 7.25 gives us 7.
Therefore, when rounded to the nearest hour, Cassandra spends 7 hours at school each day.
