what's a hundredth?

it's like this:

0.01

so where is the hundred place in this number?

389.993

it's the 9 that i made boldface

so to round to this number we delete everything after it, asking ourselves if the number after it is 4 or less? yes! so we can just delete it without changing anyway


389.99
