Yes; rounding changes the conclusion because 12.0 is above 12.5 even though 12.04 is not.

Yes; rounding changes the conclusion because 12.04 is really 12.4, which is close enough to be above 12.5.

No; rounding means 12.04 and 12.0 should be treated as exactly the same number, so the comparison to 12.5 does not matter.

No; both 12.04 and 12.0 are below 12.5, so rounding does not change the conclusion.
