Question could you please round the decimal number .012146 to the nearest hundred thousandth ? Thanks
Answer Hello, David.
The hundred-thousandth place is the fifth spot to the right of the decimal point.
For your question, the hundred-thousandth place is the 4. Since the number to the right of the 4 is 5 or greater, the decimal will round up to the nearest hundred-thousandth.
