We can see that the resulting product of 2 × 0.73 is just the sum of two dots. We can represent this in equation form as:

0.73 + 0.73

Finally, we can execute the addition by adding the tenths and hundredths of each number separately, then adding everything together at the end.

tenths + hundredths

(0.70 + 0.70) + (0.03 + 0.03)

1.40 + 0.06

1.46
