Question

What is 2.42 rounded to the nerest ten ??​

Answer 1

2.4

Explanation:

If you mean round to the nearest ten, then the answer is 0, but if you mean round to the nearest tenth, then the answer is 2.4

I assume you mean round to the nearest tenth.

To round to the tenth, you look at the number in the hundredths position, 2.42.

The 2 is in the hundredths position. Since 2 rounds down to 0, the answer is 2.40 which is 2.4.

If you were to round to the nearest ten, then you would consider the first two in the ones place 2.42.

2 rounds down to 0, so 2.42 rounded to the nearest ten is 0.
