Rounding Decimals Fun!

Help the Decimal Dash team estimate distances and prices. For each rounding question, identify the place value you are rounding to. When rounding, look at the digit immediately to its right: 5 or more rounds up; 4 or less stays the same.

Warm-up: Place value

Read each number carefully before rounding.

1.Round 6.48 to the nearest tenth. The number line shows the tenths on either side of 6.48. Which tenth is it closer to?
6.46.5
2.Round 12.63 to the nearest whole number. Choose the correct answer.
  • 12
  • 13
  • 12.6
3.Round 3.276 to the nearest hundredth. Write the rounded number.

The market-stall mission

A stallholder is estimating amounts and prices for a sign. In New Zealand, prices are written with a dollar sign.

4.A bag of feijoas costs $4.67. Round the price to the nearest tenth of a dollar for the sign.
5.A small pumpkin weighs 2.95 kg. Round its weight to the nearest tenth of a kilogram.
6.True or false? When 8.341 is rounded to the nearest hundredth, the answer is 8.34. Explain briefly by naming the digit you checked.
7.Match each decimal to its value rounded to the nearest tenth.
  • 5.24
  • 5.26
  • 5.25
  • 5.3
  • 5.3
  • 5.2

Finish the Decimal Dash

Use what you know about place value to solve the final challenges.

8.A running route is 1.86 km long. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of a kilometre. Use the number line to see which tenth is closer.
1.81.9
9.Maia rounds 7.48 to the nearest whole number and gets 7. Is Maia correct? State the correct rounded number and explain using the tenths digit.
10.The Decimal Dash team needs one estimate for a display. Round 9.995 to the nearest hundredth. Remember that rounding may change more than one digit.
