The tenth place will be the number right after the decimal "." You have to look at the number behind the 7 to see if the 7 will stay at 7 or if it will round up to 8. Since 5 means you round up, you round the 7 to an 8, giving you:

3.8

3.753 rounded to the nearest tenth is 3.75 because the thousandths place is 3, and that is under 5, so you keep the hundredths place the same.
