このQ&Aのポイント

I live with two other women and handle the utility bills, which are in my name. When I text my roommates about the amount we owe, one of them always rounds down to the nearest dollar when sending me money. Shouldn't she be sending the full amount?
In my shared living arrangement, I have the responsibility of handling the utility bills. However, one of my roommates consistently rounds down the amount she sends me for the bills. Is this fair, or should she be paying the exact amount?
Every month, I inform my roommates of the utility bill amounts and collect the money from them. One of my roommates has a habit of rounding down the payment to the nearest dollar. Is it appropriate for her to do so, or should she be paying the full amount without rounding down?

＞rounds down to the nearest dollarとprinciple of the thingはどのような意味でしょうか？ ⇒以下のとおりお答えします。 ☆rounds down to the nearest dollar：「１ドル未満を切り捨てる」。 rounds downは、「でっぱり（端数）を取り除いて丸くする」という意味です。 ☆principle of the thing：「物事の原則（＝道理・筋）」。「（光熱費がいくら半端な金額でも、切り捨てたりせずに、請求どおりの金額を送ってくるのが）物事の道理ってもんじゃないですか？」と憤慨しているところですね。
