- 3 is in the hundredths place and 7 is in the thousandths place
- Since the digit in the thousandths place (7) is greater than or equal to 5, add 1 to the digit in the hundredths place (3)
- 1 + 3 = 4, so the digit in the hundredths place becomes 4
- The digits to the right of the hundredths place are dropped
