The value of 0.1561 rounded to the nearest tenth will be 0.20.
what is round off to the nearest 10??
rounding off to the nearest 10 means that we wish to round off the last two digits of a number, i.e. up to the tens place of a number.
as it is known that the tenth place is the digit two places to the right of the decimal point.
in 0.1561, 5 is the digit at the tenth place.
to find the rounded value of 0.1561, just see the value of the digit just before the digit at tenth place. or see the digit at 100th place.
it is 6 (greater than 5)
and it is known that if the value at 100th place is greater than or equal to 5, the digit value at 10th place needs to be increased by 1 unit.
5 will be increased by 1 means it will take the value of 6.
so value 0.1561 will be rounded to 0.16.
again we can do the same for digits at the unit place.
so 0.16 will be again rounded to 0.20.
hence, the correct value of 0.1561 rounded to the nearest tenth is 0.20.
