@IndiiAvery are ou going to answer

OpenStudy (indiiavery):

I think the answer is B.

OpenStudy (vanessaperezxo):

Ok, the answer is not b, its actually C. Let me explain...

OpenStudy (vanessaperezxo):

Ok, your trying to find a decimal that is equivalent. B has no decimal so there is no way of it being the answer. So that leaves you with A,C, and D.

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

you never get rid of your decimal @IndiiAvery

OpenStudy (vanessaperezxo):

It cant be D because it has 2 decimals and that is not really possible.

OpenStudy (vanessaperezxo):

So, that leaves you with A and C. A can not be it because it rounds too much. 8.118 can be rounded to 8.12 but not 8.18.

OpenStudy (vanessaperezxo):

Do you understand? :)

OpenStudy (indiiavery):

Yes and Thank you, @vanessaperezxo :D

OpenStudy (vanessaperezxo):

@IndiiAvery No problem. Tag me if you need more help.

OpenStudy (indiiavery):

Thank you @Holly00d1248 for letting me know to never remove the decimal.
