The speed of a Dragonfly is 6.974

Mark said that the speed of a dragonfly rounded to the nearest tenth was 6.9 meters per second. Is he correct? If not, what is his error?

Respuesta :

He is not correct, any number 5 or greater rounds the number up. 
The speed of the dragonfly would be 7 because 7 rounds 9 to 10 making 6 a 7.
