Question 5589: My question is:
10.440 rounded to the nearest thousandth.
would that be 10.4 or 10.44? Does it matter since 10.44 would round down to 10.4? I'm not quite sure what "thousandth" means.

Remember this example:
0.123 is zero plus ONE TENTH, plus TWO HUNDREDTHS, plus THREE THOUSANDTH.
10.440 has zero in the thousandth digit and seroes afterwards, so, it is already rounded to the nearest thousandth.
