Answer:

117.2

Explanation:

Rounding a number to the nearest tenth:

A number rounded to the nearest tenth will have one decimal place.

To do this, we look at the second decimal digit.

If it is less than 5, the first decimal digit is kept.

Otherwise, one is added to the first decimal digit.

In this question:

117.22666

The second decimal digit is 2, which means that we keep the first decimal digit which is also 2.

So, the number rounded to the nearest tenth is 117.2.
