The answer is 1.751702

Explanation:

In this number there are 11 decimal places which can be found after the decimal point.

1.75170179212

As we want 6 decimal places, we need to look at the digit to the right of sixth decimal place. Therefore:

1.75170179212

So, in this case, the digit in the seventh place is a '7'.

If we want to round a number, there are two ways:

• If the digit is less than 5, you leave the sixth decimal as it is.

• If the digit is equal or greater than 5, you add 1 up to the sixth decimal.

As the seventh decimal is a '7' which is greater than '5'.

We add a 1 to the Sixth decimal place.

As the sixth decimal place was a '1'. When we round it, it will be a 2
