8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A tenth is 0.1

To round of to the nearest tenth means to round it of to 1 decimal place.

Now, look at the number after the tenth place with is 0.03 or simply 3.

If the digit is 0-4, you round the whole number down.

Hence, 15.839 is 15.8 to the nearest tenth digit.

If the tenth digit is 5-9 such as 15.85 or 15.87, you round the number up, to give 15.9

Explain why any rational number is either a terminating or repeating decimal?
harkovskaia [24]
Because if the number was rational then we can tell by looking at the numbers. The rational number should be one number or a repeating decimal or terminating number. plus because if a number was like this 5.7696... that means its irrational because we dont know the end of the number. The rational numbers are terminating numbers or either decimal or repeating numbers because we know the end of those numbers.
