Question

Round each number to the specified place value.

81.23 (whole number-ones)
13.567 (tenths)

Answer 1

81

13.6

Explanation:

When rounding 81.23 to the ones place, look at the following spot, the tenths place, to determine whether to round up or down. If the value is 4 or less, round down. If the value is 5 or greater, round up. 2 is less than 4, so round 81.23 to 81.

Since we're looking to round 13.567 to the nearest tenth, look at the value of the number in the hundreths spot. Repeat the same process as above. 6 is greater than 4, so round 13.567 to 13.6.
