No, it just needs a little bit of thought! 
Hint: you can round up a number, and you can round up a herd of cows, but that's two different things.

Thanks but I don't need a hint. It just wasn't funny and if you have to explain a joke it REALLY wasn't funny.

Afraid I see no humour there. Reads more like a maths example of rounding up.

"round up"
- to mathematically approximate a value to the next higher unit
- a systematic gathering of people or things

It's because I understand rounding up perfectly well, that I simply don't find a story about someone rounding a number up, at all funny.

Isn't it quite childish for us to play "Hide-n-seek"?

If so, it usually is quite quiet at the weekends.

Why cry for this?
Listening to college lecturers/professors is a pleasure, isn't it? Transports you to an entirely new world - the world of knowledge.

I think your teachers came from another world then.
The ones in this world are boring as... Something that's really boring!

Well, I agree. It is a mixed bag - there were great teachers, good ones, and not-so-good ones.
I still remember the great ones, whose lectures I still remember nearly thirty years later - the ones who taught me Arithmetic, Algebra and Geometry (in high school), Sanskrit (in college), Intermediate Mathematics (Trig, Calculus, Coordinate Geometry), (slightly) Advanced Calculus (Vector Calculus, Curvilinear Coordinates, Linear Algebra), Introductory Programming (Fortran IV), Machine Drawing, Solid Mechanics, Experimental Mechanics, Theory of Mechanisms, Finite Element Method, Geometric Modelling, Optical Instrument Technology, ... these were all great teachers. Fortunate to have gone through their teaching.

I've had a few good teachers, but I'm just really opposed to classroom teaching (and school in general). At university I had to travel almost two hours (single trip) to listen to someone explaining me what was in my texts... I stopped reading the texts pretty soon. At high school I had a great math teacher, but I just really hated math.
I still study, but not in classrooms. I study in my own time doing the things I want to do at my own pace (which is usually a lot faster than classroom training). And when it's for school I don't even like doing that.
Now when I study for hobby stuff gets interesting... I write code, read articles, go at it until night...
