Answer:

0.60

Explanation:

Step 1: Locate and underline the hundredths place (9) then look at the digit to the right (9):

0.599

Step 2: In this case, the digit to the right (9) is 5 or above. So, we add 1 to the hundredths place (9). Because 9 plus 1 equals 10, the hundredth becomes 0 and we add 1 to the digit at left of it. If the digit at left is again 9, we repeat this process until we get 0.60 as the answer.

In short: 0.599 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 0.60
