Okay, last one:p Barry is trying round √658 to the nearest tenth. This is his work: 25^2 = 625 ; 26^2 = 676 25.6^2 = 655.36 25.65^2 = 657.9225 25.66^2 = 658.4356 Barry chose 25.65. What did Barry do wrong?

As the question is saying that "TO THE NEAREST TENTH", Barry took the two digits after decimal.. 25.6 is the right answer...

Or if we do proper rounding then, answer will be : 25.7..
