Answer:

0.4285714286.

The hundredth place is 2 places to the right of the decimal. In this case, it is 2. So we look to the number to the right of 2 (which is 8). 8 ≥ 5, so the 2 gets rounded to a 3.

0.43

Answer:

The answer is 0.43

Explanation:

When you divide 3 by 7, you get 0.42857142857142857142857142857143.

To round to the nearest hundredth, you go 2 numbers after the decimal place. The number on the right of the 2nd number (which is in the hundredths place) will either make the number round up or down. Since the number 8 is greater than 5, the number rounds up.

So, the answer will be 0.43
