Hi sir, I got confused to see difderent illustrations in kaplan book and in lectures . My doubt was that in some exercises the main solution figure is totally rounded like if original figures is y = 6201.62 tonnes in regression analysis, it rounded off to 6202 tonnes.
While in some exercises, it is rounded after decimal point like if figure is 6201.678 then it is rounded to 6201.68
I want to know how should i answer in CBE exam.
Thank you
There is no standard rule with regard to rounding, but it will not be a problem in the exam.
If it is a question that lists several choices of answer and requires you to choose the correct one, then it will be obvious from the choices available what the level of rounding is.
If it is a question that requires you to type in a figure, then the question will state that (for example) it wants the answer to the nearest tonne, or to the nearest cent.
