from 96 to 78
if I rounded to the nearest tenth would it be 18.8?
Yes.
would it be decresed or increased
from 96 to 78
n% or 96 is 18
how can I tell?
Since 78 is less than 96, it decreased.
To determine if rounding 96 to the nearest tenth results in 18.8, we can follow these steps:
1. Identify the digit in the hundredths place. In this case, the digit is 6.
2. Determine if the digit in the hundredths place is 5 or greater. Since 6 is greater than 5, we round up.
3. Increase the digit in the tenths place by 1. The digit in the tenths place is 9, so we add 1, resulting in 10.
4. Replace the digits in the hundredths and tenths place with zero. The rounded number is now 100.
5. To evaluate if 78 is equal to the rounded number 100, we can see that 78 is less than 100.
Therefore, rounding 96 to the nearest tenth does not result in 18.8.
