Question

Round the number to the given place value.

8.14; tenths

A.
8.1

B.
8.2

C.
8.4

D.
8.5

Answer 1

Which digit of 8.14 is in the tenths place?

Answer 2

It's A

8.14 since the hundreds place is under 4, you round it down. Thus, 8.1.

Answer 3

0.1 = tenths
0.01 = hundredths
0.001 = thousandths

then use the rounding rules, if the number directly to the right of the place you need to round is 5 or greater round up, else it stays the same
