Hello!

ANSWER:

5 10/13 rounded to the nearest tenth is A) 5.7.
___________________________

EXPLANATION:

Convert 5 10/13 to an improper fraction.

First, multiply the denominator by the whole number:

5 × 13 = 65

Next, add that to the numerator:

65 + 10 = 75

This is the new numerator. Place it over the old denominator.

5 10/13 = 75/13

-------------------------------------------------------

Now, convert the improper fraction to a decimal by dividing its numerator by its denominator:

75 ÷ 13 = 5.7692307692

This can be rounded to 5.7.
