The 6 is the hundredths place so..

5 or above means to round up!

So 6 is bigger than 5.

Make the 2 into a 3 because that's what your rounding

Make everything else zeroes

Answer:

5.264 rounded to the nearest tenths is 5.3.

Explanation:

We have to round 5.264 to the nearest tenths.

The answer is 5.3

To round to nearest tenth, means to round to the first digit after decimal.

We have .26 , so 6 will be rounded off by adding 1 to 2. This makes 2+1=3

Hence, we get the rounded number as 5.3.
