How do you round 1.26 to the nearest hundredth?

Answer 1

The first figure to the right of the decimal point represents tenths and the second figure represents hundredths. 1.26 is already accurate and does not need rounding to the nearest hundredth.

It can be rounded to the nearest tenth.

.26 is nearer to .30 than it is to .20 so 1.26 to the nearest tenth is 1.3

Answer 2

Well, isn't that just a happy little question! To round 1.26 to the nearest hundredth, we look at the digit in the thousandth place, which is the 6. Since 6 is greater than 5, we round the number up to 1.26 becomes 1.26.

Answer 3

To round 1.26 to the nearest hundredth, you look at the digit in the thousandths place, which is the 6 in this case. Since 6 is greater than or equal to 5, you round up the digit in the hundredths place, which is the 2. Therefore, 1.26 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 1.3.
