When rounding to a specific place, take a look at the digit immediately to the right of the target. If that digit is 4 or less, zero everything to the right of the target out. If that digit is 5 through 9, increase the target by one and zero everything to the right of it out. If the target is a 9, increasing it will turn it to zero and increase the digit to the left of the target by one.

How do you round the number 242.1567 hundredth place?

First of all, what is the hundredth place? The hundredth place is two place values to the right of the decimal place. so 0.00... In the number that is given, 242.1567... the hundredth place is where the number 5 is. In that case, to round a number to the hundredth place means to cut the decimal short until you reach the 2nd place value. Since the number beside the 5 is going to be rounded off (because we're rounding to the hundredth place), I ask... do we round up or round down with 6? We round UP! In that case, the rounded number is 242.16 .

How do you Round each number to indicated place value?

To round a number to a certain place value, you look at the digit immediately to the right of that place value. If it is 5 or greater, you round up; if it is less than 5, you round down. For example, to round 3.785 to the nearest hundredth, you would look at the digit in the thousandths place (8), which is 5 or greater, so you round up to 3.79.
