Round 2.346 to the nearest hundredth?

Answer 1

The answer is 2.35 To round to the nearest hundredth, look at the third number after the decimal. If it is a 5 or higher, raise the number before it to the next higher number. In your number, the 6 is in the third place after the decimal. Since it is a 5 or higher, the number before it (the 4) goes up to the next higher number. So we say the 4 is rounded up to a 5. Now, if that 6 was a number smaller than 5, we would just leave the second place number after the decimal just as it is. We would not change it. If your number was 2.341, it would be rounded to 2.34
