1 answer

To round the numbers 120 and 90 to the nearest tenth:

  1. 120: The tenths place is represented by the first digit after the decimal point. Since there is no decimal in 120, we start by envisioning it as 120.0. The digit in the tenths place is 0, and there are no digits after it to influence rounding. Therefore, 120 rounded to the nearest tenth is 120.0.

  2. 90: Similarly, we can express 90 as 90.0. Again, the digit in the tenths place is 0, with no digits following to influence rounding. Thus, 90 rounded to the nearest tenth is 90.0.

In conclusion, both numbers rounded to the nearest tenth are:

  • 120.0
  • 90.0
