Edexcel new specification chapter two

Hello,

I am studying A Level Edecxel with the new specification.

I was solving the problems in chapter two, and I got some of the questions wrong because of rounding problem.

Why some of the answers are rounded while some of the answers are not rounded?

I am so confused.

For example, I got 18.6 for an answer so I wrote down 19, but the answer was 18.
But on another question, I got 11.5 as an answer so I wrote 11 this time (in the book, most of the answers are not rounded), but the answer was 12.

Is there anyone whose experiencing the same problem?

You don't mention the subject or the book you are using so kind of hard to comment.
