<u>Answer:</u>
The given number 8,295.357 rounded off to the nearest tenth is 8295.4
<u>Solution:</u>
We have to round off the given integer to the nearest tenth.
The integer is 8295.357.
When we are trying to round off a number it doesn’t matter how many digits come after the decimal point.
We have to look at the tenths place, it is immediately to the right of the decimal point. After rounding to the nearest tenth, this will be the final digit in your number.
So the number in the tenths place of the given number is 3.
Now we look at the hundredths place of the decimal. Which is 5 in this case.
If the number in the hundredths place is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9. We "round up" by adding 1 to the tenths place digit. Get rid of all digits after the tenths place, and we have our answer.
As in the case of the given number the hundredth place is 5. Therefore we add 1 to the tenths place, and get rid of the numbers after that.
Therefore the number becomes 8295.4
