(If a decimal number is 0,1,2,3 and 4, we just remove that decimal term without changing the original value or the decimal term before it, but if it has a decimal number of 5,6,7,8,9, we remove that decimal term and adding the original value or the decimal term before it to 1.)
Since 26.75 has a hundredth of 5, we add 1 to the tenth and remove the hundredth therefore, makes 26.8.
9. C. 16.3
Since 16.27 has a hundredth of 7, we add 1 to the tenth and remove the hundredth, therefore, makes 16.3
