Answer

$\approx \$0.70$

Work Step by Step

We need to round $\$0.698$ to the nearest cent. First we draw a cut-off line at the "cent" decimal place ($\$0.01$): $0.69|8$ Now we examine the number after the line (8) to see if it is larger than 5. Since 8 is larger than 5, we round up: $0.69\approx \$0.70$
