The distance between two communication towers is 12.654 miles. What is this distance rounded to the nearest tenth of a mile?

12.7 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the place values:

12.654

1 (tens value)

2 (ones value)

.

6 (tenths value)

5 (hundredths value)

4 (thousandths value)

~

You are rounding to the nearest tenths value. Note that when rounding, you look at the value directly next to the one you are solving for. If the digit is 5 or greater, round up. If it is 4 or less, round down.

In this case, the hundredths value is a 5, so round up.

12.654 miles rounded to the nearest tenths value is 12.7

12.7 miles is your answer.

step-by-step explanation :

we know that

the measurement of the outer angle is the semi-difference of the arcs which comprises

in this problem

m< xzy is the outer angle

substitute the values

the measure of angle xoy is equal to

> by central angle

substitute the value
