To solve this problem, you'll need to convert the mixed number to a decimal and then round it to the nearest tenth. Let's start by converting the mixed number.
To convert 4 2/3 to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator (2) by the denominator (3).
2 รท 3 = 0.6667 (rounded to four decimal places).
Now that we have the decimal representation of 4 2/3, we can round it to the nearest tenth. In the decimal form, the tenths place is the first decimal place after the point.
Since the digit in the tenths place is 6 and is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.
Therefore, rounding 4 2/3 to the nearest tenth gives us 0.7.
Looking at the answer choices given, none of them match the rounded value of 0.7. So, the correct answer is not listed among the given options.
Apologies for the confusion caused by the missing correct option in the given choices.
