Bahir’s science class grew sunflowers for an experiment. The tallest sunflower grew to 2.387 meters. Bahir made a sketch of the sunflower in his notebook. He will label its height with a rounded decimal that will make the sunflower appear as tall as possible.

Should Bahir use a decimal rounded to the nearest meter, nearest tenth meter, or nearest hundredth meter? Explain your reasoning.

Nearest tenth meter because a decimal with a tenth is the biggest the decimal could be if you wanted it to still be a decimal.
