Question

Estimate 0.037854921 to the nearest hundredth. Express your answer as a single digit times a power 10 ?
 

hintHint:

Check the digit at thousandth place and then estimate.

The correct answer is: 0.04


    Complete step by step solution:
    Here the digit at the thousandth place in the given decimal number is 7.
    Since 7 > 5,  we add 1 to the digit at the hundredth place and remove all the
    digits right to it.
    So here, we get 0.037854921 rounded to the nearest 100th is 0.04.
    This can be expressed as 4 cross times 10-2
