Rounding to the ones place means looking at the digit to the right of the ones place, which is 7 in this case. Since 7 is 5 or more, we round up the ones place from 70 to 70, keeping it unchanged because the next whole number would be 71, but rounding does not increase the digit in this scenario since we're rounding to the nearest whole number.
