A model that can be used to find the product of 3 and 1.4 is shown in the image below. The product of 3 and 1.4 is 4.2.

In Mathematics and Euclidean Geometry, an expression simply refers to a mathematical equation which is typically used for illustrating the relationship that exist between two (2) or more variables and numerical quantities (number).

Based on the information provided about these numbers, we would design the product of 3 and 1.4 by dividing rectangular figure into three parts with each segment representing 1.4. In this context, the product of 3 and 1.4 can be written as follows;

3 × 1.4 = 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.4

3 × 1.4 = 2.4
