Explanation:

Step1: Define rounding rule for tenths

A number rounds to $3.60$ (or $3.6$) when rounded to the nearest tenth if it is in the interval $3.55 \leq x < 3.65$.

Step2: Check each option

• a. $3.50$: $3.50 < 3.55$, rounds to $3.5$
• b. $3.54$: $3.54 < 3.55$, rounds to $3.5$
• c. $3.58$: $3.55 \leq 3.58 < 3.65$, rounds to $3.6$
• d. $3.64$: $3.55 \leq 3.64 < 3.65$, rounds to $3.6$
• e. $3.67$: $3.67 \geq 3.65$, rounds to $3.7$

Answer:

c. 3.58, d. 3.64
