Question

0.04 rounded to the nearest hundreth

and

0.2% rounded to the nearest hundreth

Answer 1

0.04 is already at its nearest hundredth

0.2% is 0.002, 0.002 rounded to the nearest hundredth would be 0

Explanation:

Answer 2

To round a number, you look to the next place to the right of what you want to round to... for example, if you want to round to the nearest hundredth, you look to the thousandths place to see whether the hundredths place rounds up or down.

0.04 is already at the hundredths place so the thousandths place is zero... the answer to the nearest hundredth is 0.04.

For 0.2%, you have to convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100 (move the decimal 2 places to the left).

0.2% = 0.002

So now to round to the nearest hundredth, we look to the thousandths place. The thousandths place has a 2 in it so the hundredths place rounds down. 0.2% total he nearest hundredth is 0.
