"Nearest tenth" means one decimal place (the tenths place). For 175.93:
1. Identify the tenths digit (first digit after the decimal): 9.
2. Look at the next digit (the hundredths): 3.
3. Rounding rule: if that next digit is 5 or greater, increase the tenths by 1; if it's less than 5, keep the tenths the same and drop the rest.
Here the hundredths digit is 3 (less than 5), so keep the tenths as 9 and drop the rest:
175.93 → 175.9
(If the hundredths had been 5 or more, e.g. 175.96, you'd round up to 176.0.)
