Rounded Number 3 . 5
  • 4 is in the tenths place and 6 is in the hundredths place
  • Since the digit in the hundredths place (6) is greater than or equal to 5, add 1 to the digit in the tenths place (4)
  • 1 + 4 = 5, so the digit in the tenths place becomes 5
  • The digits to the right of the tenths place are dropped
  • 3.465 rounded to the nearest tenth (one decimal place) = 3.5
