No 11.2 pence you can't actually pay that in current coins, it is nearest to 11p.

You'd round down I guess to the nearest whole pence, 11p. Unless you have been specifically asked to round up, in which case it would be 12pence. There's no such thing as .2 of a pence, so you'd have to round one way or the other!
If something was priced at 11.2p though in a shop, you can bet your life they'd charge you 12p, not eleven!!!

11 pence, you would only round it up to 12 pence if the fourth number (the 2) was more than 5.

at the start i thought "Hmmm is this a joke?" then i remembered the good old days when i had to do that in maths. 11p. same explanation as the otheres. 11 whole pennies and the .2 is below 5 therefore it is insignificant.

11 British Pence rounded off, which is 22 US Cents - also rounded off, or 16 Euro Cents (rounded off) as of this minute. By the time you read this the conversions will undoubtedly be different.

no it is 11 pennies as the 3rd digit after the decimal point is less than 5 you round it down.

If correctly rounded down its 11p but if it were on a gas bill for example i believe companies round up no matter what so its 12p
