Math Problem Statement

Round 4.5192 to the nearest hundredth.

Solution

The question is asking to round 4.5192 to the nearest hundredth.

  1. Look at the hundredth place (the second digit after the decimal), which is 1.
  2. Then, check the digit in the thousandth place (the third digit after the decimal), which is 9.
  3. Since 9 is greater than or equal to 5, you round the hundredth place up by 1.

So, rounding 4.5192 to the nearest hundredth gives:
