Round 34.46737587922817 to the nearest tenth?

Answer 1

This is something that can be done without posting a question on Answers.com.

A 'tenth' is the number in the first place after the decimal point.

In this case, the first 4 after the decimal point is in the tenth place.

Now, on to rounding rules.

If the number DIRECTLY AFTER the number to be rounded is 5 or greater, then round the number up one. If the number directly after the number to be rounded is less than 5, then leave the number what it is.

So, in the tenth place, we have a 4. Directly after the 4 is a 6. Since 6 is higher than 5, we round the 4 up to a 5.

So, the final answer is:

34.5
