Answer 1

781.5

Step-by-step explanation:
`\text{Given: 52.1 }*\text{ 15}`

The above question about multiplying decimals. To answer this, we will be using the question given

To solve multiplication given, there different methods used but a simple method is to note the number of decimal points in the question in total.

Then when multiplying, we will remove the decimals points and multiply. Then after the result, we return the decimals back.

So from our question, we have a total of 1 decimal point (this is from 52.1)

muliplying without the decimal point:

To return the decimal point:

We will move the decimal point from the last number, in this case 5. Since decimal point is 1, we will move one time

Hence, 52.1 x 15 = 781.5
