Solution

The correct option is B 8.04
The number represented by "Eight and thirty-seven thousandths" is 8.037.


The 7 in the thousandths place is greater than 5.

As 7 > 5, we round the digit in hundredths place up by 1.

∴ The digit in the hundredths place will be 3 + 1 = 4.

So, the rounded number becomes 8.040 which is the same as 8.04.
