5.167 = 5.17 to the nearest hundredth.

Remember with decimal digits

tenths (1)

hundredths(6)

thousandths(7)

To take to the nearest number, check the next number to the right. It it is '5' or greater, then add '1' to the given number.

In the above example '6' is the given (hundredths) number. So check with '7' . Since '7' is greater than '5' , then we add '1' to the '6', making for '7'.

Hence 5.167 = 5.17 to the nearest hundredth.

NB If the next number to the right is less than '5' , then the given number remains unchanged. e.g. 5.162 = 5.16
