Question 631410: I need to find the length DE to the nearest hundreth of a foot and DE is 18 feet

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you already found it.
if DE is equal to 18 feet, then that's already been answered to the 100th of a foot.
if you want, you can show it at 18.00 feet but that's not necessary.
the only time you need to round is if your answer has more than 2 decimal places in it.
assume the lengthy of DE was 18.429 feet.
then you would round to 18.23 in order to get to the nearest hundredth foot which is 2 decimal places.
you answer, if you didn't round it previously, is already rounded to the nearest hundredth of a foot.
