Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you round it to the nearest whole number, then 17.526  becomes 18 because if the first digit after the decimal(in this case,5) is 5 or greater you round to the next whole number.

If you round it to the nearest tenth, it would result in 17.5, because if the second digit after the decimal (in this case, 2) is 5 or greater you round to the next tenth of decimal.

Hope this helps!
