Answer:

The answer is 0.18.

Explanation:

In order to determine the answer, we have to know about notation numbers.

In any number, every digit has a notation, depending on its position.

I have attached an image that shows some notation numbers.

We can see that the position of the "nearest hundredth" is the second decimal, two digits to right of the decimal point.

Also, if we want to round in this digit, we have to see the next digit.

There is a rule:

  • If the "next digit" is equal or greater than 5, we have to increase "this digit" in one unit.
  • If the "next digit" is lesser than 5, "this digit" does not change.

In this case:


(9.2)/(52.063) =0.1767

"this digit" is 7.

The "next number" is 6. As we see, it is greater than 5, so "this digit" is increased to 8.

Finally, the rounded number is 0.18.
