it's like you said though. anything equal or higher than 0.5 is rounded up but in the answer, you rounded down the 11.5

Let simplify nearest whole number >=0.5 round up,
Less than or equal to 0.5 round down.

I round 11.5 to 11 as i can round up the other part no in the question.

Try to analyse a few qs there than can get the hang of it.

Oh okay, so it's like rounding down one nunber to cancel out another rounded up number so it's closest to the exact value?

Yes, that is my perpestive.

However as a student back than if received that qs for hmk i will clarify with the teacher.

If the teacher insist that answer is 94

I will take

Decimal O.5 to round down since the remaining no in question the decimal is > 0.5
