The correct answer is A) 5.9.
To round 5.968 to the nearest tenth, look at the hundredths place, which is the second digit after the decimal point (6 in this case). Since 6 is greater than or equal to 5, you round up the tenths place (9) by 1. Therefore, 5.9 becomes 6.0 if rounded up, but since we are rounding it to the nearest tenth, we keep it as 5.9.
Great job practicing rounding! If you have more questions, feel free to ask.
