1. **State the problem:** We want to verify if rounding was saved until the very end in the ANOVA calculations.
2. **Recall the importance of rounding:** In statistical calculations, intermediate results should keep full precision to avoid rounding errors affecting the final result.
3. **Check intermediate calculations:**
- Group means were calculated with decimals (e.g., 54.67, 43.7, 53.7) rounded to two decimals.
- Overall mean was calculated using these rounded means but multiplied by 9 and summed before dividing by 27, which is exact.
- SSB calculation used squared differences with decimals rounded to two decimals.
- SSW sums were given with decimals but likely from full precision data.
- Mean squares and F-ratio were calculated using these values.
4. **Conclusion:** The calculations show rounding at intermediate steps (e.g., group means to two decimals), so rounding was not saved strictly until the very end. However, the final F and p-values are consistent with typical rounding practices.
**Final answer:** Rounding was applied at intermediate steps, not saved strictly until the very end.
