❄ Hi there,

$\sf{(1)/(6)\approx0.167}$ , rounded to 3 DP (decimal places)

$\left\vert\textsf{Decimal Places = Number of digits after the decimal point}\vert$

Why round? Because the entire number goes on for ever and ever.

So, we need to round. 1/6 rounded to 3 decimal places is 0.167. We have 3 numbers after the decimal point.
