To round to 3 decimal places, look at the digit in the 4th decimal place.

• 36.785499 → the 3rd decimal digit is 5, the 4th decimal digit is 4
• The 4th decimal digit is 4, which is less than 5, so we do not round up
• Keep the 3rd decimal digit as 5
• 36.785499 rounded to 3 decimal places = 36.785

Final Answer: 36.785
