Answer:

b. 7.485

c. 7.489

d. 7.491

e. 7.492

Explanation:

For the first three options, you only round up if the number on the end is a 5 or higher. But for the last three options, the number in the hundreths place is a 9 already, so we're trying to round down the number on the end (4 or lower to round down).
