Best Answer

If your target digit is a 9 and rounding makes it increase, the digit immediately to the left of it will increase by one. If that digit is a nine, the same thing applies. Otherwise, the digits to the left of the target are left as they were.

What is 121.39 rounded off to the nearest hundredth?

121.39 rounded off to the nearest hundredth is 121.39 itself, as there are no digits after the hundredth place.


How many significant digits are in this 39.0?

Three. All non-zero digits are significant, all zeroes between other digits, and all digits to the right of the decimal. The reason for this is that if this is rounded off, it apparently is rounded off to the nearest tenth, otherwise the tenth place would not be shown. if it were rounded off to the unit, it would read 39, not 39.0 ■

What is the mystery number rounds to 200 when rounded to the nearest hundred The sum of its digits is 10 When the number is rounded to the nearest 10 it rounds to a number whose digits have a sum of 5?

The mystery number is 155. When rounded to the nearest hundred, it rounds to 200. The sum of its digits is 1+5+5=11 which is greater than 10, so we must adjust the digit in the hundreds place. When rounded to the nearest ten, 155 rounds to 160, which has digits summing up to 1+6+0=7.
