Example Question #13 : Concepts

Evaluate:

$20.1 \cdot (-20.3)$

Possible Answers:

-40.83

-480.3

-408.03

-408.3

-40.803

Correct answer:

-408.03

Explanation:

The product of two numbers of unlike sign is the (negative) opposite of the product of their absolute values.

$20.1 \cdot (-20.3) = - \left (20.1 \cdot 20.3 \right )$

There are a total of two digits to the right of the two decimal points. Therefore, the product can be calculated by multiplying 201 by 203, then placing the decimal point so that there are three digits at right.

$201 \cdot 203 = 40,803 \Rightarrow 20.1 \cdot 20.3 = 408.03$

Since we need to affix a negative symbol in front, the answer is -408.03

Example Question #1 : Operations With Fractions And Whole Numbers

$\small \frac{6}{7}\times\frac{1}{2}$

Possible Answers:

$\small \frac{1}{5}$

$\small \frac{2}{3}$

$\small \frac{3}{7}$

$\small \frac{2}{7}$

$\small \frac{1}{2}$

Correct answer:

$\small \frac{3}{7}$

Explanation:

When we multiply fractions, we multiply the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator.

$\small \small \frac{6}{7}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{6}{14}$

$\small \frac{6}{14}$ can be reduced by dividing both sides by $\small 2$

$\small \small \frac{6}{14}\div\frac{2}{2}=\frac{3}{7}$
