The nearest tenth closest to the number 341 is 340.

The second number 5 is a little tricky because it is both close to 0 and 10; however, to simplify life, mathematicians have chosen to round up a number whenever it is equally distant from the highest tenth and the lowest tenth. Having that in mind we round up 5 to get 10.

Hence the answer is 340 and 10
