Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given the amount $8.162

if we are to round this amount to the nearest hundredth, we would have

$8.16

this is because will have already consider the last value in the given digit and this value is not up to 5 hence we are not able to round the number next to it up, but we have to retain its current value of 6.

therefore the value is

$8.16
