The tenth place is the number after the decimal. So it would be the first 8. If you need to round to the tenth place you must round the tenths place up or down (this rounding is determined by the value in the hundredths place). The hundredths place is the second number after the decimal, it would be the second 8 in the example given. If the value in the hundredths place is 5 or greater (5,6,7,8, or 9) the tenths place value would increase by one. If the hundredths place value is less than 5 (4,3,2, or 1) the tenths place value would remain the same. In the example 4.888, the hundredths place is greater than five, so the tenths place value increases by one... So when rounding 4.888 to the tenths place, the answer would be 4.9.
