question 4 (multiple choice worth 5 points) (01.06 mc) select the true statement about the number 745.428. 745.428 rounded to the nearest tenth is 745. 745.428 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 745.42. 745.428 rounded to the nearest tenth is 745.5. 745.428 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 745.43.

Explanation:

Step1: Round to nearest tenth

Look at the hundredths digit (2) in 745.428. Since 2 < 5, we keep the tenths digit (4) unchanged: $745.428 \approx 745.4$

Step2: Round to nearest hundredth

Look at the thousandths digit (8) in 745.428. Since 8 ≥ 5, we add 1 to the hundredths digit (2): $2+1=3$, so $745.428 \approx 745.43$
