Your number is already specified to the hundredths place without any additional digits so rounding is unnecessary.
If there were any additional digits, you'd use the *next* digit to decide if you round up or not.
Example:
98.5271 cm
98.52|71
......... ^ The next digit is a 7. Since it is 5 or higher we increment the number before, then drop the rest. (98.52 increments to 98.53).
98.53
47.12|0 cm
.......... ^ The next digit is a 0. Since it is less than 5, we keep the number before and drop the rest (47.12 stays 47.12)
47.12
Answer:
47.12 cm
