Question

16.437 rounded to the nearest hundreath is 16.43 true or false

Answer 1

False, becauee when rounding, if the number behind the place you are rounding to is 5 or more, the number is rounded up. In this case, the number in the place behind (the thousandths place) is 7, therefore the correct answer would be 16.44

Answer 2

Answer=False

16.437 rounded to the nearest hundredth would be 16.44, not 16.43

To know what 16.437 would be when rounded to the nearest hundredth, we need to look to the number in the thousandths place.

16.437

7 is in the thousandths place

The rules of rounding are:

If the number is 5 or greater, you round up

If the number is 4 or less, you round down.

Since 7 is greater than 5, we round up.

So 16.437 becomes 16.44

The question says that 16.437 would become 16.43, therefore, it is false.
