Answer 2

Options :

7.423 pounds

7.437 pounds

7.413 pounds

7.425 pounds

Answer:

7.425

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding each option to the nearest hundredth:

The second digit after the decimal point is the hundredth digit, if the next digit (thousandth digit) is more than or equal to 5, then it is rounded to 1 and added to the hundredth digit value, if otherwise, it is rounded to zero.

7.423 = 7.42 (nearest hundredth)

7.437 = 7.44 (nearest hundredth)

7.413 = 7.41 (nearest hundredth)

7.425 = 7.43 (nearest hundredth)
