To round the number 9.936 to the nearest hundredth, you look at the third decimal place (the thousandths place) to decide whether to round up or down.
In this case:
- The hundredths place is 3 (the second digit after the decimal).
- The thousandths place is 6 (the third digit after the decimal).
Since 6 is greater than 5, you round up the hundredths place from 3 to 4.
Therefore, 9.936 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 9.94.
