Question

4.27cm rounded to the nearest cm

Answer 1

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

`4.27\text{cm} \approx\boxed{4\text{cm}}`

Here’s why:

• We would locate the whole number and look at the number to the right. In this case, we would look at the '2' in the tenths place.
• Since it is less than or equal to 4, we would round down.

Recall the Rounding Rules:

• If the digit to the right is less than or equal to 4, we round down.
• If the digit is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.

`\underline{4.27cm}\\\\\rightarrow2\leq 4\\\\\boxed{4.27cm \approx 4cm}`

4.27 meters = 427 centimeters
Formula: multiply the value in meters by the conversion factor '100'.
So, 4.27 meters = 4.27 × 100 = 427 centimeters.
