To round to the nearest hundredth is 42.66

Answer 2

Answer:

the answer is 42.66

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the numbers after the decimal has certain places.

The first number which is here .659 is called the tenths place. Then next is called the hundreths which is located here   .659 The next thousands and etc.

The way to calculate rounding is if the number next to it is 5 or higher or is 4 or lower.

like this decimal (EX.)   .125 we hav to round to the nearest hundredths place. This is this number .125 .  We use this number next to it .125 to see if it is rounded up or down. if it is 5 or higher we change it to .13 if it is lower than 5 like 4, 3, 2 etc we leave it alone like this .12 But the answer for this example is .13 because the number next to it is higher

So for this equation in .659 the number 9 is higher than 5 so we raise the number to the left of it to 6
