What is 0.794 rounded to the nearest hundredth?

Answer 1

0.79

Answer 2

To round to the nearest hundredth look at the digit in the thousandths column (the next column to the right); if it is 5 or more round up otherwise round down.

The hundredths column is the second column after the decimal point. Thus the thousandths column contains a 4 which is less than 5 so round down.

0.794 → 0.79 to the nearest hundredth.
