Answer 1

A)
`\huge\boxed{3.9}`

B)
`\huge\boxed{5.42}`

C)
`\huge\boxed{125}`

Explanation:

A) 3.892

To round off to nearest tenth, we'll see the digit in hundredths place. If it is greater than 5 or equal to 5, 1 will be added to the tenths place. If it's not, it will remain the same.

So, it will be like:

=> 3.9

B) 5.424

To round off to nearest hundredth, we'll see the digit in thousandths place. If it is greater than 5 or equal to 5, 1 will be added to the hundredths place. If it's not, it will remain the same.

So, it will be like:

=> 5.42

C) 124.62

To round off to nearest whole number, we'll see the digit in tenths place. If it is greater than 5 or equal to 5, 1 will be added to the ones place. If it's not, it will remain the same.

So, it will be like:

=> 125
