Math - when do you round?

Published

Hey, new here, but love the site! I test on Wed at 2pm (ah, so soon!), and am taking the Kaplan online course. I noticed on Kaplan for drug dosage questions they do not round to the 10th place, but the 100th place. DOes anyone know the NCLEX rule? Thanks!!!:jester:

Any # over 5 and u would round up. For example 30.5 would = 31 gtt/min. Since it is 30.2 it would = 30 gtt/min:) Hope this helps

If you were giving gtt 30.2 would be 30. I took my nclex test monday i had several drips and my questions didn't say how to round. I am very upset about this because with my answers it made a difference.
