Answer:

The incorrect rounding is 53.87

Explanations:

The given number is 53.864

If the number is approximated to 2 decimal places

53.864 = 53.86

If the number is approximated to 1 decimal place

53.864 = 53.9

If the number is approximated to the nearest unit

53.864 = 54

If the number is approximated to the nearest tens:

53.864 = 50

Note: 53.864 cannot be approximated to 53.87 because the third decimal place (4) is not up to 5
