Round 3:38 to the nearest ten
aev [14]

Answer:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Round 3.38 to the nearest ten

Rounding up to the nearest 10, we look at the digits on the left hand side of the decimal point. If the number on the right of the decimal point is less than 5, we ignore it.if it is greater than 5, we add one to the last digit on the right hand side.

In this case, the first digit on the left hand side is less than 5, so we ignore it. Rounding up to the nearest ten,the 0.38 is ignored.

Therefore, it becomes 3.0 = 3

To the nearest ten
