Since the given number is 425.652

The hundredth digit is the 2nd number right at the decimal point

It is 5

To round to the nearest hundredth, we will look at the digit right to it

1. If it is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 we will ignore it and write the number without change except by canceling that digit

2. If it is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 we will cancel it and add the digit left to it 1

Since the right digit to the digit 5 is 2, then we will remove it and do not change the digit 5 (case 1), then

The number after rounding should be 425.65

The answer is 425.65
