Transcript text: Round the decimal number to the nearest hundredth.
4.19153
Solution
Solution Steps
To round a decimal number to the nearest hundredth, identify the digit in the hundredths place and the digit immediately to its right (the thousandths place). If the thousandths digit is 5 or greater, round up the hundredths digit by one. Otherwise, keep the hundredths digit the same.
Step 1: Identify the Relevant Digits
To round the number \(4.19153\) to the nearest hundredth, we first identify the digits in the hundredths and thousandths places. The hundredths digit is \(9\) and the thousandths digit is \(1\).
Step 2: Apply Rounding Rules
According to rounding rules, if the digit in the thousandths place is less than \(5\), the hundredths digit remains unchanged. Since the thousandths digit is \(1\), which is less than \(5\), the hundredths digit \(9\) remains the same.
Final Answer
The number \(4.19153\) rounded to the nearest hundredth is \(\boxed{4.19}\).
