Answer 2

Answer: 17.3

===========================================

Explanation:

Start with the value 17.318 and note that the tenths place is just after the decimal point, so it is the 3. The digit after the 3 is 1, which is not 5 or greater. So we just drop everything after the 3 and write 17.3 as our answer
