what is 6.217 rounded to the nearest thousandth?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a line is over 17

OpenStudy (triciaal):

look at the "number line" i gave you. thousandth means to 3 decimal places

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its 16.21

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.217 ^That is a tenth. 6.217 ^That is a hundredth. 6.217 ^This is the thousandth, which affects the hundredth.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When it has a line over a number, that mean it repeats. Like 3.33333333.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the thousandth 4 or less, or 5 or more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 or more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, sorry, the 7 after the thousandth, like so: 6.2177.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its 6.217 with the over bar over 1 and 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Like I said, it has a line over a number, that means it repeats, so the number would actually be something like 6.21777777777.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it pretty much stays the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.2177 ^4 or less, 5 or more?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

@FrostFelon the bar is over the 17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im so confused right now lol....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, I thought it was only over the seven, my bad.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@triciaal help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.2171717171717 ^This 6.2171717171717 ^affects the thousandth.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since it's 4 or less, yes, it stays the same.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the 7 stays or goes?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

@cdarby1 where did you get stuck? and luckily i am right here. it is rude to tag someone else when you are being helped

OpenStudy (triciaal):

it is always ok to say you need more help or to ask specific questions about a person's response

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry i didn't mean to be rude..... I do apologize..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I do apologize. May we continue on with the help??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To repeat: 6.2171717171717 ^This 6.2171717171717 ^affects the thousandth. Since it's 4 or less, yes, it stays the same.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
