To round to the nearest tenth, we must round it to the nearest hundredth first, we have
[tex]14.481[/tex]See that we have 1 at the last decimal, then we will keep the hundredth value, it means that we will round to
[tex]14.481\rightarrow14.48[/tex]Now the last decimal is 8, it's above 5, then we must add one at the tenth and remove the hundredth
[tex]14.48\rightarrow14.5[/tex]Therefore the nearest tenth is the letter C, 14.5
