10.0

9.96

To start ; look at the hundredths figure. If it is '5' or greater, '6' in this case, add '1' to the tenths figure, and drop the hundredths.

So 9 + 1 = 10

So place '0' in the tenths column and carry '1' into the units column .

So 9 + 1 = 10 ( again). Nothing else to add. so the answer is '10.0'. NOT '10', because you are omitting the 'nearest tenths'.

It would round up to 10.0 to the nearest tenths, as the .96 will round up to 0, pushing the first 9 to 10. So in this instance, rounding to the nearest tenth and the nearest ten will have the same result.
