Question

kendra and her horse completed the barrel racing in 15.839 seconds. what is the number rounded to the nearest tenth?

Answer 1

To round to the nearest tenth, you would want just one number after the decimal point. You would take the number 15.839 and use that nine to round the 3 to a 4. Since four can not round 8 up to anything, your final answer will be "15.8".
