To find numbers that round to -6 when rounded to the nearest integer, we look for numbers in the range from -6.5 to -5.5. Here’s how each option you provided fits into that criterion:

  • -5.1 rounds to -5 (not in range)
  • -5 rounds to -5 (not in range)
  • -4/710 (approximately -0.00562) rounds to 0 (not in range)
  • -6/19 (approximately -0.3158) rounds to 0 (not in range)
  • -5.4 rounds to -5 (not in range)
  • -5.9 rounds to -6 (in range)
  • -6 1/10 (which is -6.1) rounds to -6 (in range)
  • -6 7/10 (which is -6.7) rounds to -7 (not in range)
  • -6.8 rounds to -7 (not in range)
  • -7.2 rounds to -7 (not in range)
  • -7.1 rounds to -7 (not in range)
  • -5 over 7/10 (which is -5.7) rounds to -6 (in range)

From the options provided, the three numbers that round to -6 when rounded to the nearest integer are:

  1. -5.9
  2. -6 1/10 (or -6.1)
  3. -5 over 7/10 (or -5.7)

Thus, the selected numbers are -5.9, -6.1, and -5.7.
