Answer:

24.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the nearest tenth of a number is the first decimal.

The expression given: 24.583 has three decimals, we must round the first one, as the second decimal is bigger than 5,so the first decimal would be increased by 1, finally the expression 24.583 would be rounded to 24.6

look at 24, now you see the dot there is a 5 that will tell you if you round up or down

There is a 96% customer retention rate for the third quarter.

Given

Jenny owns a salon.

She had 150 customers at the end of the third quarter, 151 customers at the beginning of the third quarter, and five new customers in the third quarter.

<h3>Customer retention rate</h3>

It determines the percentage of customers that the company has retained over a given period.

The customer retention rate is determined by;

$\rm Customer \ retention \ rate=\dfrac{Given \ period -New \ customers}{Initial \ number}\times 100$

Substitute all the values in the formula;

$\rm Customer \ retention \ rate=\dfrac{Given \ period -New \ customers}{Initial \ number}\times 100\\\\\rm Customer \ retention \ rate=\dfrac{150-5}{151}\times 100\\\\ Customer \ retention \ rate=\dfrac{145}{151}\times 100\\\\ Customer \ retention \ rate=0.96 \times 100\\\\ Customer \ retention \ rate=96$
