Rounding gives a number that's close and easy to use. Where is 67 on the number line?
67 is between 60 and 70. It's closer to 70, so 67 rounds to 70.
342 is between 340 and 350, and closer to 340. So 342 rounds to 340.
What about 65? It's exactly halfway between 60 and 70. When a number is exactly halfway, we round up, to 70.
