What is 243.56 rounded to the nearest tenth? A. 243 B. 243.5 C. 243.6 D. 244

jabez177 (jabez177):

5 is in the tenth place. Look to your right, that is 6. Is 6 greater than 5 or less than 5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

More.

jabez177 (jabez177):

Good, so that means your 5 will become what? 6 or 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

Just to be sure, what is your answer? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d???

jabez177 (jabez177):

Nope, C is the answer.

jabez177 (jabez177):

Because the one-hundreds, tens, and ones place stays the same. We're only talking about the "Tenths"place.:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok. Thank you for the help! :)

jabez177 (jabez177):

So we get rid of the one-hundreths place and just leave the tenths and you get C. :)
