There are rules for rounding.

The most common one is to round up if the following number is greater than 5, down if it is less than 5, and go to another rule if it is exactly 5

In this case, the numbers starting at the 3rd decimals are
xx.xx595494
This is greater than xx.xx5 (because of the 95494 that follows the 5)
Therefore the rule is clear: we go up:
43.96

---

When it is exactly 5, there are many rules.

One rule is to make the preceding number even. At one time, this was called the computer's rule.

e.g., 43.955 would become 43.96,
while 43.965 would remain 43.96

---

But in this case, it is not exactly 5 (because there are numbers greater than 0 after the 5)

When to Round Up
Rounding up means that we increase the terminating digit by a value of 1 and drop off the digits to the right. If the next place beyond where we are terminating the decimal is greater than or equal to five, we round up. For example, if we round 5.47 to the tenths place, it can be can be rounded up to 5.5.



When to Round Down
If the number to the right of our terminating decimal place is four or less (4, 3, 2, 1, 0), we round down. This is done by leaving our last decimal place as it is given and discarding all digits to its right. For example, if we round 6.734 to the hundredths place, it can be rounded down to 6.73.

So in your Case ... 43.955xxxxx would round up at the 100th's and therefore it would be 43.96

43.96 (2DP)

If you are rounding then anything that ends with a 0,1,2,3,4 you round DOWN

Anything that ends with a 5,6,7,8,9 you round UP
