4.24 rounded to the nearest tenth is 4.2
first u find the number in the tenths place....it is the 2...u then look to the number directly to the right of it...
** if that number to the right of it is 5 or above, u would round ur number up 1.....so ur 2 would round up to a 3.
if that number to the right of it is 4 or below, ur 2 would stay a 2
so the number to the right of ur 2 is 4....therefore, ur number stays a 2.
so 4.24 rounded to the nearest tenth is 4.2
