Answer 6

Answer 7

Right! So that means you have to round. I am going to list the answer here with a few of the decimals added with it.

17.3205

Now the tenths place in the decimal is 1 digit away from the decimal. To get there that means we must start rounding. Let's look at the 5. Since 5 >= 5, that means we round the 0 to a 1, so now we have 17.321

17.321

Now looking and the last 1 digit, the 1 doesn't change the 2 because 1 isn't equal tpo or greater than 5, so now we have 17.32

Answer 8

Now, what do you think the answer is?

Answer 9

17.3?
