grade 5 / mission 1 / lesson 7 exit ticket use the table to round the number to the given places. label the number lines, and circle the rounded value. 8.546 a. hundredths b. tens

Explanation:

Step1: Recall rounding - rule for hundredths

Look at the digit in the thousandths place. If it is 5 or greater, round up the digit in the hundredths place.

Step2: Analyze the number 8.546

The digit in the thousandths place is 6. Since 6 > 5, we round up the 4 in the hundredths place. So 8.546 rounded to the hundredths is 8.55.

Step3: Recall rounding - rule for tens

Look at the digit in the ones place. If it is 5 or greater, round up the digit in the tens place. If it is less than 5, keep the digit in the tens place the same.

Step4: Analyze the number 8.546

The digit in the ones place is 8. Since 8 > 5, when rounding to the tens place, 8.546 rounds to 10.

Answer:

a. 8.55
