To round a number to the nearest hundredth, you need to look at the digit in the thousandth place, which is two decimal places to the right of the decimal point.
In the case of 72.84, the digit in the thousandth place is 4.
To round to the nearest hundredth, you need to look at the next digit, which is 8 in this case.
If the digit in the thousandth place is greater than or equal to 5, you round up the digit in the hundredth place. If it is less than 5, you leave the digit in the hundredth place as it is.
Since 8 is greater than 5, you round up the digit in the hundredth place, which is 4, to the next higher whole number, which is 5. Therefore, 72.84 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 72.85.
