Answer 1

Answer:

D. 34,623.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the numbers after the decimal point:

0.2 - Tenth Place

0.02 - Hundredth Place

0.006 - Thousandth Place

To round it up to nearest hundredth, we need to look at the place value just below it, Thousandth Place: its 6

Rule of rounding up:

1. If the place value just below the place to which it is to be rounded up has a face value which is greater than 4, then the place to be rounded up is increased by 1 and all the places having the lower value are reduced to 0.

ex - Round up 378898 to the nearest lakhs:

ans - 400000, as ten thousands place is 7 and it is greater than 4.
