Answer:
7
Explanation:
Round to the tenths value. Note the number placement:
6 (ones place value)
.
9 (tenths place value)
6 (hundredths place value)
Round to the nearest tenths value. Look at the place value directly next to the tenths, or the hundredths place value. It is a 6. Because 6 is greater than 5, round up. Add 1 to the tenths place value:
6.96 rounded to the nearest one decimal = 7.0
7 is your answer.
