Rounding to the nearest tenth means rounding to the decimal place directly to the right of the decimal.

The rules of rounding are fairly simple. If the number to the right of the number you are rounding is greater than or equal to 5, you round up. If the number to the right is less than 5, you round down.

Let's take a look at the number 12.345.
First, round to the hundredths place. The number right before the 4 is 5, so we round up. This gives us the number 12.35.
Next, we have to round to the tenths place. The number to the right of the 3 is 5, so we round up as well. This gives us the number 12.4.

Answer: 12.4

Explain how to use the combine place values strategy to find 223-119

Vikentia [17]

So, the subtraction looks like this:

   223
-119
_______

The reason why combining place values here is necessary is that 3 is less than 9 (so I can't just substract in the one's place without going to negative numbers)

so we combine the ones and tens places and substract the whole: 23-19 is four!
   223
-119
_______
   04

and then we continue
   223
-119
_______
    204

and that's the result!
