Answer :
The next larger hundredth is 3.05 .
The next smaller hundredth is 3.04 .
3.047 is closer to 3.05 than it is to 3.04,
so the nearest hundredth is 3.05 .
Round 3.047 to the nearest 100th
To visually illustrate the rounding off of the values as said
to the nearest hundredths. We can first disband the digit to simpler values
using the expanded form:
1. 3 = ones
2. 0. 04 = hundredths
3. 0. 007 = thousandths
Since we have located the hundredths in 0.04 we can next round off it according to its nearest value which is 0.007. The number becomes 3.05.
