Answer 15

To round to the nearest 10th, you have to see what the numbers are.
Ex: 58.642
The first number after the decimal is the tens place. So you have to see whether or not the second number is higher or lower than 5. If it's higher, you round up. If it's lower, round down.


To convert decimals to fractions, you just move the decimal point over, if that makes sense.

I'm not very good at explaining, sorry.

Answer 16

So 58.642 = 58.6 since the 4 isn't higher than 5.

Answer 17

ok so if it was like 89.723 to the nearest tenth it would be 89.7??

Answer 18

Yep @sadaws

Answer 19

Yes! c:

Answer 20

but if it something like 89.755 it would be 89.8 @sadaws

Answer 21

ok kool but if it was the nearest hundredths would it be what?

Answer 22

The hundreds place is the second number after the decimal. To find the hundreds, you look at the third number after the decimal.
Example: 89.723 = 89.72 since the 3 is lower than 5.

Answer 23

so if the 3 was say a 6 then it would be 89.73 or what

Answer 24

Correct! Since it would be higher than 5.
