What is 5.275 rounded to the nearest hundredth?

Hello!

the hundredths place is located 2 units to the left of the decimal point

In this case, a 7 is in the hundredths place, and a 5 is in the thousandths place

since the thousandths place is 5, round the 7 to an 8 (you round the number up if the unit to the right is a 5-9. otherwise keep it the same)

your final number is: 5.28

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
