Answer:

12

Explanation:

1.) Instead of saying 18 divided by 4 equals 4.5, you could just use the division symbol, which is a slash. Also note that all answers in our division calculations are rounded to three decimals if necessary.

2.) 6 x 4.5 = 27

easy way to explain it :

18 divided by 4 is 4.5 then we take 4.5 and multiply it by 6 which equals 27. So, your answer would be 27.

Please correct me if i'm wrong and tell me what did wrong

and if it is correct then I hope this helps!!!
