Round each number to the place value of the bold and highlighted digit. The number is 319.7 with the 9 highlighted. I came up with 320 but I don't think that is right. Can someone help me? Thanks.
320 is correct
To round a number to a specific place value, you need to look at the digit directly to the right of that place value. In this case, the highlighted digit is 9, and we are rounding to the nearest ten.
To determine if you should round up or down, look at the digit to the right of the highlighted digit. In this case, the digit to the right of 9 is 7, which is greater than or equal to 5. Therefore, you round the highlighted digit up.
To round up, you increase the highlighted digit by 1 and set all the digits to the right of it to 0. So, rounding 319.7 to the nearest ten gives you 320.
In your case, you correctly rounded the number to 320, which is the correct answer. Well done!
