You asked:

Round \(4.273\) to \(1\) decimal place.

MathBot Answer:

\(4.273\) rounded to 1 decimal place is: \[ 4.3 \]


Rounding a quantity to 1 decimal place is equivalent to rounding it to the nearest \(10^{-1}\). The two consecutive integer multiples of \(10^{-1}\) that \(4.273\) falls between are \(4.2\) and \(4.3\). \(4.273\) is closer to \(4.3\) than \(4.2\), so \(4.273\) rounded to 1 decimal place is: \(4.3\).
