Answer: The answer is A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

A) With 752.32, you would look at the 2 after the decimal point. The 2 is not greater then 5 so the 3 stays the same so the answer is 752.3

B) With 752.36, you would look at the 6 after the decimal point. The 6 is greater than 5 so the 3 would turn into a 4 and the answer would be 752.4

C) With 752.27, you would look at the 7 after the decimal point. The 7 is greater than 5 so the 2 turns into a 3 and the answer would be 752.3

Hope this helps...
