What digit in 234.896 determines its precision?
The precision of a number is determined by its last digit. The true value lies with a half of the place value of this last digit. In the above case it is the 6, which is in the thousandths place. So the true value lies within half-of-one-thousandths of the given number. That is, it lies in the interval [234.8955, 234.8965]. I use round-to-even, which is the default rounding mode used in IEEE 754 standard for computing functions and operators.
How many sig figs in 12.0?
Three. On the grounds that the zero after the decimal point is an indicator of precision (rounding) rather than simply a [redundant] place holder.
What is the round off number of 1.875?

How would you round 186 to the nearest hundredth?
186 is an integer, so it needs no rounding. It has no parts smaller than 0.01. To indicate the precision of the number, you can write 186.00.
What is 254.34 rounded to nearest hundredth?
In engineering, the precision of a quantity is implicitly told in the number of digits presented. In the number 254.34, the precision is of six digits. If by one hundredth it is meant 1/100 of the unit then the number in question is already given to the nearest hundredth. No more rounding is necessary. If the rounding is going to be down to the nearest hundred, then the number is written as 3 x 10^2. This means the quantity has dropped down to a one order magnitude level. Precision of the number is just of one digit. RafaelRZ :The answer provided by' Ericbames' is correct.
