Answer: Box 1: 2 Box 2: 2

Explanation:

So, for box one it would be 2 because 3 x 4 = 12, put the 2 on the bottom and the 1 on the 6, then 6 x 4 + 1 = 25, then put the 5 on the bottom and the 2 on the top, then 4 x 0 + 2 = 2, so the answer would be 2.

For box 2, 252 + 1?60 = 0.1512, so we have to find the missing number. So, 2 + 0 = 2, so put the two on the bottom, then 5 + 6 = 11, so put the 1 on the bottom and the other 1 on the 2 from the first box, so 2 + 1 = 3, plus 2 more would equal 5, so the second box would be 2.

Hope this helps!

To do the multiplication, we multiply 0.63 by each of the digits & decimal places of 0.24 (and align the products that we get) then add them together.

0.63 x 4 = 2.52, therefore the first missing spot is a 2.

0.63 x 2 = 1.26, therefore the second missing spot is a 2 (the 0 is so that the decimal point can be aligned for the result.)
