To one decimal place

In rounding up numbers, numbers 1 to 4 are rounded up to zero, while numbers 5 to 9 are rounded up to 1.

To one decimal place, we look at the second decimal place which is 6. Digit 6 is rounded up to 1, which will be added to the first decimal place, 5+1=6

Hence we have 2.6

Answer is 2.6%
