They round up to the nearest penny. It's just a teeny fraction of a cent, but they add up quick when you have so many people consuming gasoline. So when you pay $2.09& 9/10 you're actually paying $2.10. Clever, isn't it?

PS: congratulations on making it back home safe, and congratulations on your service, man. It must take a lot of guts and iron will to do what you did. You're an admirable dude, Mr. Dalton. Let's get together for a drink next time i'm in the 'couve.
