To round 2.996 to the nearest hundredth, you look at the third decimal place, which is 6 in this case. Since 6 is greater than or equal to 5, you round up the second decimal place by 1. Therefore, 2.996 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 3.00.

Oh, dude, rounding numbers is like trying to pick the perfect avocado at the grocery store - it's a skill. So, to round 2.996 to the nearest hundredth, you just look at the third decimal place, which is a 6. Since 6 is 5 or greater, you round up, making it 3.00. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.

Well, honey, 2.996 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 3.00. It's as simple as that, no need to make a federal case out of it. Just bump that number up if the next digit is 5 or greater, otherwise, leave it be.
