The word “rounding” for a numerical value means replacing it by another value that is approximately equal but has a shorter, simpler, or more explicit form.
Rounding is often done on purpose to obtain a value that is easier to write and handle than the original. It may be done also to indicate the accuracy of a computed number; for example, a quantity that was computed as 123,456 but is known to be accurate only to within a few hundred units is better stated as “about 123,500”.
