How do you round 2.459 to the nearest hundredth?

Answer 1

Since 5 is in the hundredths place, you will be rounding it either up or down. To determine if you round up or down, look at the number in the the next place over,in this case, 9. The general rule is if the next number in 1-4, you round down and numbers 5-9, you round up. Since 9 falls in the "up" catagory, you round 5 up to 6.

Your final answer would be 2.46

I hope this helps!!
