Oohh so close! You have the right idea. It is because 8 is greater than 4, though!

0.11 rounds to 0.1 (1dp)
0.12 rounds to 0.1 (1dp)
0.13 rounds to 0.1 (1dp)
0.14 rounds to 0.1 (1dp)
0.15 rounds to ? <- be careful!
 
boy...3 pages for this...why don't you guys PM each other :?:
 
Unco, there's no need to take a cheap shot on me, ok? I was just giving you advice, "mate".

ts'ok Unco, sorry, didn't realise the kiwi picking season was over,
and that you now have loads of time on your hands... :wink:

@ Denis: I have insomnia, the thread began at about 12am and finished at about 3am (don't quote me)... I haven't slept, I went on to do some multivariable calculus - if that doesn't make one sleep, well I suppose I shall trot down to the store and buy some milk. Microwaving that should do the trick.

@ Happy: I don't actually possess any skills to sharpen, but will do when I obtain some. The "taking notes" thing clearly went over your head. My fault: Denis's subtle jokes are rubbing on to me, I suppose.

It was the middle of the night and the student didn't seem to be listening to what you were saying. You were very generous to keep going at that hour, and I think you did fine, under the circumstances. :wink:
