Let’s go through each section step by step.

Section 1: Round to the nearest tenth
To round to the nearest tenth, look at the hundredths digit (the second digit after the decimal).
- If it’s 5 or more, round up the tenths digit.
- If it’s less than 5, keep the tenths digit as is.
1) 8.326 → hundredths = 2 → less than 5 →
8.3
2) 6.998 → hundredths = 9 → ≥5 → round up 9 → becomes 7.0 →
7.0
3) 9.83 → hundredths = 3 → <5 →
9.8
4) 51.711 → hundredths = 1 → <5 →
51.7
5) 687.817 → hundredths = 1 → <5 →
687.8
6) 19.07 → hundredths = 7 → ≥5 → round up 0 → 19.1 →
19.1
7) 432.080 → hundredths = 8 → ≥5 → round up 0 → 432.1 →
432.1
8) 483.37 → hundredths = 7 → ≥5 → round up 3 → 483.4 →
483.4
9) 59.42 → hundredths = 2 → <5 →
59.4
✔ All checked.

Section 2: Round to the nearest hundredth
Look at the thousandths digit (third after decimal).
- ≥5 → round up hundredths
- <5 → leave hundredths
1) 84.744 → thousandths = 4 → <5 →
84.74
2) 6.883 → thousandths = 3 → <5 →
6.88
3) 308.817 → thousandths = 7 → ≥5 → round up 1 → 308.82 →
308.82
4) 66.663 → thousandths = 3 → <5 →
66.66
5) 399.839 → thousandths = 9 → ≥5 → round up 3 → 399.84 →
399.84
6) 409.723 → thousandths = 3 → <5 →
409.72
7) 7.450 → thousandths = 0 → <5 →
7.45
8) 117.855 → thousandths = 5 → ≥5 → round up 5 → 117.86 →
117.86
9) 66.935 → thousandths = 5 → ≥5 → round up 3 → 66.94 →
66.94
✔ All checked.

Section 3: Round to the nearest thousandth
Look at the ten-thousandths digit (fourth after decimal).
- ≥5 → round up thousandths
- <5 → leave thousandths
1) 5.0016 → fourth digit = 6 → ≥5 → round up 1 → 5.002 →
5.002
2) 6.1087 → fourth digit = 7 → ≥5 → round up 8 → 6.109 →
6.109
3) 56.3008 → fourth digit = 8 → ≥5 → round up 0 → 56.301 →
56.301
4) 106.7128 → fourth digit = 8 → ≥5 → round up 2 → 106.713 →
106.713
5) 4.6687 → fourth digit = 7 → ≥5 → round up 8 → 4.669 →
4.669
6) 49.9376 → fourth digit = 6 → ≥5 → round up 7 → 49.938 →
49.938
7) 856.3981 → fourth digit = 1 → <5 →
856.398
8) 69.6009 → fourth digit = 9 → ≥5 → round up 0 → 69.601 →
69.601
9) 73.7896 → fourth digit = 6 → ≥5 → round up 9 → 73.790 →
73.790
✔ All checked.
