PLEASE HELP!!!!! When a question asks you to "Round to the nearest tenth of a percent," what does an answer in that form look like? Thanks! =)

OpenStudy (alexwee123):

like 69.456% rounds to 69,5%?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11.1% is to a tenth of a percent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, okay - so, if I have a decimal answer, I change it into a percent, and then I round it to the nearest tenth?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.2% 3.4% 56.2% 123.8% all examples of percentages rounded to a tenth.

OpenStudy (alexwee123):

ya^^

Perfect! Thank you so much, everybody! :)

Here's a quick example: 3 out of 9 people say yes to a question. What percentage say yes, rounded to the nearest tenth? 3/9 = 0.33333333 = 33.3%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Perfect - that's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks! =)
