Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1.Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator
2.Multiply to remove 1 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 101 = 10
3.Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 4 and 10, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 2,
so the answer is
0.4= 2/5
<span>The tenths place is to the right of the decimal point.</span>
In order to round u number to the nearest tenth, you should <span>to the right of the tenths place. Depending on this number you should determine if you will round up or stay the same (if it is bigger than 5 you will round up, if not it will stay the same).
In our case, the number is 15.5 so it is already rounded to the nearest tenth.
