Answer 1

Fatima should shade 3 groups of 8 small squares or 24 small squares.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Fatima is shading this model to show 0.08 × 3. Shade the correct amount of boxes that will show the product.

Here 3 represents the number of groups and 8 represents the small square.

Multiplication is repeated addition.

We can rewrite the above multiplication as: 0.08 + 0.08 + 0.08

Therefore 0.08 × 3 = 0.24

Here 0.24 represents 24 small squares.

The required model is shown below:

Hence, Fatima should shade 3 groups of 8 small squares or 24 small squares.
