OpenStudy (reemii):

10.677078252031311 -> to the nearest tenth means that you decide to keep one digit after the `.` The answer will be `10.6` (round below) or `10.7` (round above). What you do depends on the next digit.

OpenStudy (reemii):

The rule is: if the next digit is strictly lower than 5, then round below. Otherwise, round above.

OpenStudy (logan13):

so 10.10

OpenStudy (reemii):

not possible. 10.677..... , if you round to the tenth, that means it WILL BE `10.6` or `10.7`depending on what follows `10.6......`. After that first `6`, you see `77078252031311`. The first digit of this is `7`. So, what do you conclude?
