Question

How to round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Hello!

To round to the nearest tenth, look at the number to the right of the tenths place (the number in the hundredths place). If it is a number from zero to four, you do not need to change the tenths place number. If it is a number from five to nine, you round the tenths place up a number. 

For example:

0.34  rounded to the tenths place is 0.3 because the hundredths place is a four. 


0.19   rounded to the tenths place is 0.2 because the hundredths place is a nine. 


I hope this helps :))

Answer 2

Say the number is .296 , the nearest tenth is .297. You round the second number. If it is higher or at 5 , you round it. If the number was .294 , the answer would be .290.
