57.96 roused to the nearest whole number

58

Step-by-step explanation:

A whole number is a number without a decimal.

Therefore, to round 57.96 to a whole number, we need to figure out if it is closer to 57 or 58.

Now, to determine that we look at the decimal.

A rule is that if the first decimal (decimal in the tenths place) is greater or equal to 5, we round up. If not, we round down.

This said, since the decimal is 0.96, we round up. (0.96≥0.5)

So our answer would be 58.
