Answer:

14.601 or 14.602. or 14.603 or 14.604

Explanation:

We are given that a five digit number and when you round to the nearest hundredth then the answer is 14.6

We have to write that number

First two digits of the number will be same as in 14.6

If a number round to nearest hundredth then it means its tenth place is 6 and hundredth place is 0

The last digit can be any number but less than 5 because if last digit is greater than or equal to 5 then one will be added to hundredth place value but we have hundredth place 0 it means thousandth place will be less than 5.

Then the number can be

14.601 or 14.602. or 14.603 or 14.604
