Calculations with decimals

I am having problems understanding what is happening with my formulas
depending if I round or not.

If I multiple 912.5 * .50=426.25

if I round
913*.5=456.5

Why are the answers different? I am trying to charge our customers per
driver and I don't think they will agree to pay for .25 or .50 of a person,
even though I want to show them the entire calculation.
