- 2 is in the hundredths place and 8 is in the thousandths place
- Since the digit in the thousandths place (8) is greater than or equal to 5, add 1 to the digit in the hundredths place (2)
- 1 + 2 = 3, so the digit in the hundredths place becomes 3
- The digits to the right of the hundredths place are dropped
