I'd say round to the nearest 0.01 (since we can track US dollars only as small as 0.01)

Answer 6

What did u get?

Answer 7

So would it be 27.70?

No

Answer 9

You would want to round one more term.

Answer 10

you rounded to the nearest 0.1, not the nearest 0.01

Answer 11

Answer 13

No you want to round to the nearest hundredth

That's the nearest whole number, NOT the nearest 0.01

Answer 15

I'm not sure then i wasn't really taught this

Answer 16

Well you rounded to the nearest tenth, u need to round to the nearest hundredth
