Answer:

425.98

Explanation:

3 decimal places is the thousands

When rounding to the thousandths place, you want to look at the ten-thousandths place to determining if you are going to increase the thousandths place, or keep it the same.

In this case, the ten-thousandths is greater than five, which means we are going to boost the 9 to a 10.

Because it is a ten, the thousandths place is now a zero and the hundredths place is now an 8.

When zero is your last digit in a decimal, you always take it off (unless referring to money, than keep the zero.)

That being said, the simplified answer is 425.98
