Answer 1

Hi, Shanoviann.

 

Okay, for rounding to the nearest tenth, look at the tenths place and then look at the number to the right of it.

 

3.785  the digit 7 is in the tenths place. if you look next door to the right, you see an 8. Since this number is 5 or larger, you will round the 7 to an 8.

3.785 = 3.8
