• A. $159.64$
• B. $195.64$
• C. $159.46$
• D. $195.46$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $159.46$

Here both the multiplicants have 1 digit each after the decimal point. So the product should have 2 digits after the decimal point.
The multiplication is shown as follows:
$23.8$$\leftarrow \text{1 decimal place}$
$\times 6.7\leftarrow \text{1 decimal place}$
___________
$1666$
$1428$
________
$159.46$ $\leftarrow \text{2 decimal places}$

So, $23.8\times 6.7=159.46$
Therefore, Option a is the correct choice.
