Answer :
23.74 would round down to 23.7 because 4 is less than 5.
23.69 would round up to 23.7 because 9 is higher than 5.
23.69 would round up to 23.7 because 9 is higher than 5.
Two possible answers are:
23.65 and 23.72.
Explanation:
For the first number, 23.65, we are rounding to the tenths place. 23.65 itself is smaller than 23.7. Looking behind the tenths place, the digit behind it is 5. This means we round the tenths place up; this becomes 23.7.
23.72 is larger than 23.7. We will round it to the tenths place as well. Looking behind the tenths place, we have a 2; this means we "round down." This means leave the 7 as it is and drop the other digits behind it. This gives us 23.7.
