Question

Mickey said that 45.7654 rounded to the nearest thousandth is 45.765 and Nicole said that it was 45.766. Who is correct and why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Mickey

Step-by-step explanation:

Mickey is correct because if you look at the number 45.7654 whenever you round to the nearest thousandth it'll be 45.765

5 is the thousandth place so look to the right. If the number to the right is greater than 5 it'll round to 47.766 but since it's a four ti rounds down.

Answer 2

Mickey is correct because you can only round up if the number is 5 or higher. Nicole rounded up with a 4 so she is wrong.
