Answer:

2 would technically be larger, but if you were to round 1.999 to the nearest tenth, you would get 2.

Explanation:

How do you round a decimal?

  • First, find the digit in the place you are rounding to.
  • Look at the digit one place to the right.
  • If the digit is less than 5, round down. If the digit is 5 or greater, round up.

Have a great day! :D
