Question

Find the Product:
0.2 x 0.3

Answer 1

=0.06

Explanation:

0.2

× 0.3

= 0.06

therefore the answer is 0.06

Answer 2

0.06

Explanation:

The product of 2 numbers means that we have to multiply them.

So, we do 0.2 x 0.3 = 0.06

To do this, we convert the decimal fractions into whole numbers by multiply both by 10.

ie. 0.2 x 10 = 2

and

0.3 x 10 = 3

Now multiply together

2 x 3 = 6.

However, we have to remember that we multiplied both numbers by 10 (ie. 10 x 10 = 100) so we must remember to divide the answer by 100

...0.06

Hope this helps!
