question
round 6.13 to the nearest tenth.
answer attempt 1 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the tenths and hundredths place

In the number \(6.13\), the digit in the tenths place is \(1\) and the digit in the hundredths place is \(3\).

Step2: Apply the rounding rule

The rule for rounding to the nearest tenth is: look at the digit in the hundredths place. If it is less than \(5\), we round down (keep the tenths digit the same). If it is \(5\) or greater, we round up (increase the tenths digit by \(1\)).

Since \(3 < 5\), we round down. So we keep the tenths digit \(1\) as it is and drop the hundredths digit.

Answer:

\(6.1\)
