The answer may be obtained from the context. If you are talking about the cost of a suit, I would not bother with the nearest cent, but for the cost of a of a small packet of sweets (candy) I would want to know the nearest cent.

To round to the nearest whole number, look at the tenths column. If the digit is 4 or less round down; otherwise it is 5 or more and round up. The tenths digit is 9 so round up &rarr; 30.92 &rarr; 31 to the nearest whole number.
