Answer:

1.3

Explanation:

The nearest tenth is one number after the decimal point (in this case it's 2). In order to round this number to the nearest tenth, you must look at the number at the hundredth (in this case it's 9). If the number is 5 or larger, you round up. If the number is 4 or smaller, you round down. Here, the number is 9, which is larger than 5. Therefore, you round up.

1.2983 to the nearest tenth = 1.3
