- 4 is in the ones place and 5 is in the tenths place
- Since the digit in the tenths place (5) is greater than or equal to 5, add 1 to the digit in the ones place (4)
- 1 + 4 = 5, so the digit in the ones place becomes 5
- The decimal point and the digits to the right of the ones place are dropped
