Answer:

3860

Explanation:

The tenths place is the 2nd digit from the end of a number.

in the number 3856, our thousanths digit is 3 (3000), our hundreths digit is 8 (800), our tenths place digit is 5 (50), and our ones place digit is 6.

To round off to the nearest tenth, we want to cut off any specific numbers past the tenths place by rounding up or down.

With 3856, we want to observe the number 6. The ones place will tell us which tenth to round to. Because 6 is greater than 5, we are going to round up, which means our 5 in the tenths place is going to be rounded up to 6—our 56 is now a 60.

So our rounded number should be 3860.

Hope this helps :)
