Round 14.857 to the nearest tenth. a. 15.0 b. 14.8 c. 14.9 d. 10.0

C. 14.9

Explanation:
When rounding to the nearest tenth, we will check the number in the hundredth position:
1- If the number in the hundredth position is less than 5, then we will just omit all numbers after the tenth and keep its value as it is
2- If the number in the hundredth position is 5 or more, then we will omit all numbers after the tenth and add 1 to the value of the tenth.

In the given question, the number in the hundredth position is 5, therefore, we will add 1 to the tenth and then omit all digits after it.

So, 14.857 is approximately equal to 14.9

Hope this helps :)
