If you see in a number scale, 0.48 to very nearer to the whole number 0.
So, as your procedure suggests Zero is the right answer.

Your problem can also be approached in another way

On rounding off the number 0.48 we get,
0.48 = 0.5
You may further round off 0.5 to the nearest whole number 0 or 1, since both are at same distance from 0.5...

You can also round it off to 1.

Yes, zero is a whole number. Well done for getting it correct. When I first learnt rounding I would have said that 0.48 rounds to 0.5, which rounds to 1! I can't believe I was ever that rubbish!

(For anyone who thinks what I just wrote was how you actually do it: if you want to round to a whole number. you look at the first decimal place. If it is 0,1,2,3 or 4 you round down, if it is 5,6,7,8 or 9 you round up.)
