The value for (0.889 × 55)/9.97 to the nearest tenth is

A. 0.5
B. 4.63
C. 4.9
D. 7.7
E. 49.1

(0.889 x 55)/9.97 is approximately to (0.9 x 55)/10 = 5,5 - 0,55 = 4,95, so we will wish to find an answer choice that closes to 4.9

(Clear that B is out of scope because it is a hundredth)

C, 4.9 => the chosen one
