I'm not sure if I completely understand your question, but from my interpretation, the answer is 170170.

Explanation:

Your number is 169.948169.948.

Whole numbers are to the left of the decimal (169)(169).

Look at the FIRST NUMBER to the right of the decimal (99 in the .948.948).

Rounding Rules:

  • Less than 5 -> ROUND DOWN
  • Greater or equal to 5 -> ROUND UP

Since 99 is larger than 55, you have to round the 99 in 169169 UP.

However, the next number after 99 is 1010.

This means you must round the 66 in 169169 UP to 77 and put a 00 instead of the 99..

You should get 170170 as your answer.

This makes sense because 170170 is after 169169.
