How to narrow down to 1 correct answer?

Hi
In RC questions i am able to eliminate options till am left with 2 options. Both options look almost correct, then whenever i choose an option the answer is always the other one. What is wrong with my thinking? Totally confused on whats happening. Any advise suggestions are welcome.

manhattan decimal - round off example

If x is the decimal 8.1d5, with d as an unknown digit, and x rounded to the nearest
