Rounding Decimals Practice

Use the digit to the right of the rounding place to decide whether to round down or up. For 5 or more, increase the rounding digit by 1. Show your reasoning where asked.

Decimal Trail Mix

Carlos is packing snack bags for a hiking trip. Each bag needs the right amount of trail mix, so help her round the measurements.

1.The scale shows 2.748 ounces of trail mix. Round 2.748 to the nearest tenth. Choose the correct result.
2.72.8
  • 2.7
  • 2.8
  • 2.75
  • 3.0
2.A snack bag has 1.365 ounces of raisins. Round 1.365 to the nearest hundredth.
3.Carlos weighs 4.582 ounces of pretzels. Round 4.582 to the nearest whole number.
  • 4
  • 4.5
  • 5
  • 4.6

Trail Marker Challenge

Round each distance to the place value named. Track the decimal place carefully.

4.A trail sign says the lookout is 0.746 mile away. Round 0.746 to the nearest tenth.
5.A creek crossing is 1.285 miles from camp. Round 1.285 to the nearest hundredth.
6.The route is 2.499 miles long. Round 2.499 to the nearest whole number. Explain what happens when the tenths digit is 4 but the later digits are 99.

Check the Gear Labels

Some labels are correct and some need fixing. Decide what is true, then repair errors.

7.True or false: 7.850 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 7.85. Explain why the zero at the end does or does not change the value.
8.A label says 3.456 rounded to the nearest tenth is 3.4. Is the label correct? If not, write the correct rounded number and explain using the hundredths digit.
9.Carlos rounded 8.274 to the nearest hundredth and got 8.28. Which digit did she use to decide, and was her answer correct?
10.Make your own decimal between 5 and 6 that rounds to 5.8 to the nearest tenth. Write one possible number and show the hundredths digit that makes it round that way.
