Question

If you were rounding 36.842 to the nearest tenth, which digit would you useto round the decimal?

Answer 1

If you were rounding 36.842 to the nearest tenth, the digit that you would worry about is the 4, which is in the hundredths place. In this case, the number will round to 36.8. However, if it was a 5 instead of a 4 in the hundredths place, the number will round to 36.9

Answer 2

I think the answer would be 4 based on what I have been taught but I don't know for certain.
