Question

Perform the operation, rounding to the nearest hundredth place 0.57551+1.6529

​

Answer 1

2.23

Explanation:

Add then round to the nearest hundredth place:


`0.57551+1.6529`

`0.57551+1.6529=2.22841`

`=2.22841`


Now round:

`2.22841`
You round by taking the hundredths place (2) and looking at the value to the right of it (8) and if the value of the number is greater than 5 the number rounds up by one digit. If not, the number stays the same.

`8 > 5`

`2.23`

I hope this helps.
