How can I achieve that?

round(...)
round(number[, ndigits]) -floating point number
Round a number to a given precision in decimal digits (default 0 digits).
This always returns a floating point number. Precision may be negative.

Giving the Subject ("How to round a floating point to nearest 10?"),
there's a strong presumption that the OP would want the answer to be
180, not 200.

are concerned about the number of significant digits. When
laboratories
report 3 digits, all my manipulations (ppm conversion, dividing
non-detect reporting limits by 2, comparison to TACO, etc. are
required to also have exactly 3 digits of significance).

It all depends on what the OP actually wants. He's free to ignore
my example.
