Answer:

4.21

Explanation:

The hundredths place is the second number after the decimal. when rounding, you want to look at the number after. In this case the number after 1 is 0 which is lower than 5. Since it's lower than 5 we will keep the number the same.

Say the number after 1 was 7. Then we would round up and make the 1 into a 2. Any number above 5 you round up and add one to the number. If the number after is below 5, the number doesn't change.

Hope that made sense! :)

Answer:

4.21

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the hundredths place is 1 (4.2101, bold number is the hundredths place.) To round it you need to look at the number to the right of it which is 0, and if the number to the right of it is between 0-4 you keep the hundredths place the same and remove any numbers to the right of the hundredths place. Leaving you with 4.21. I hope this makes sense!
