Question

The highest speed ever recorded for a bicycle was 166.944 miles per hour. What is this speed rounded to the NEAREST tenth?

Answer 1

166.9 miles per hour

Explanation:

To round a number to the nearest tenth, look at the next place value to the right (the hundredths). If it's 4 or less, just remove all the digits to the right. If it's 5 or greater, add 1 to the digit in the tenths place, and then remove all the digits to the right. Then, the answer is 166.9.
