Given the value:

1.0649

Round to the nearest thousandths.

Solution:

In rounding numbers, it must be taken to note that if the number is greater than or equal to 5 then the succeeding number will be added by 1, hence if the number is less than 5, then the succeeding number will remain the same. Since we are asked to round to the nearest thousandths, we must determine first where thousandths  is. The number places are as follow in an ascending order: Ones/units, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, millions, hundred millions, and so on. For decimals, the number places starts with; tenths, hundredths, thousandths, ten thousandths, hundred thousandths, and so on.

4 is located in thousandths place and before 4 we have 9 which is greater than 5 therefore we will add 1 to 4.

= 1.065

Final answer:

= 1.065
