Solution

To round £23.865 to an appropriate degree of accuracy, you need to look at the digit in the thousandths place.

Step 1: Identify the digit in the thousandths place. In £23.865, the digit in the thousandths place is 5.

Step 2: If the digit in the thousandths place is 5 or more, round up the digit in the hundredths place. If it's less than 5, leave the digit in the hundredths place as it is. In this case, since the digit in the thousandths place is 5, we round up the digit in the hundredths place (which is 6) by 1.

Step 3: The new number after rounding up the digit in the hundredths place is £23.87.
