Question

What is 1.54324 rounded to the nearest tenths equal

Answer 1

The tenths place is one place to the right of the decimal point.

This means the digit in the rounding place is 5

Since the digit to the right of the rounding

place, 4, is less than 5, round down.

This means that the digit in the rounding place, 5, stays the same and

we change all digits to the right of the rounding place to 0.

So our answer is 1.50000 or 1.5.

Answer 2

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1.54324

The 5 is in the tenths place

We look at the next digit to determine if we need to round up or we leave it alone

The next digit is a 4.  It is under 5 so we leave the 5 alone

1.5
