nayelly is weighing how much of a solid resulted from a chemical reaction on a scale that reads to the nearest 1/8 ounce. The me
asurent of the solid is 6 7/8 ounces. If the answers calls for the measurement to be rounded to the nearest tenth of an ounce, Nayelly should report that the solid weighs how many ounces ?
To round to the nearest tenth you much first turn the fraction to a decimal. 7/8= 0.875+6= 6.875. Now you must round to the nearest tenth. 7 is greater than 5 so you can round 8 to 9. The final answer would be 6.9. Hope this helps!
