To round the number 362.675 to the nearest hundredth, you look at the third decimal place to determine how to round the second decimal place.

The number in the hundredths place is 7 (in 362.67), and the next digit (in the thousandths place) is 5.

According to rounding rules, if the digit in the thousandths place is 5 or greater, you round up the hundredths place by 1.

So, we round 7 up to 8.

Therefore, 362.675 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 362.68.

The correct answer is:

B. 362.68
