Answer:

0.30

Explanation:

The number next to the hundredths place, which is 7, is greater than 4. When you round, you see if the number next to the spot that you are rounding to is greater than 4. Since it is, the 9 becomes a 10, which adds up to 0.30.

If you need more explaining, I will be happy to do so. Hope this helped!

Answer:

0.30

Explanation:

When rounding to the nearest hundredth, you must look at the thousandth place (7), which is above 5 and then means the hundredeth position increases by 1. Since it is already 9, it would also increase the 2 tenths to 3 tenths or 30 hundredths.
