Probably not the answer you're looking for:  Yes.  Yes I can.

Also probably not the answer you're looking for:  No.  It can't be done.  We could round $112.417 to the nearest cent, but we can't do that with 112.417 because it's not money- it's not a measure of cents of dollars.

Probably the answer you're looking for:

112.417 rounded to the nearest cent (the hundredths place):

The hundredths place is the 1 in .417.  Do we leave that as 1 or does it bump up to 2?

The next place over (the thousandths place) is a 7, which is greater than or equal to 5, so the hundredths place rounds up to 2.

Answer:  $112.42
