Question

Find:

$0.25\times 3$

Answer 1

Multiply:

Given, $0.25\times 3$

Ignoring the decimal points in the multiplicands, we get $25$ and $3$.

Multiplying $25$ and $3$, we get $75$ as follows:

$$\begin{gathered} 25 \\ \times 3 \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \\ 75 \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \end{gathered}$$

In the given multiplicands, there are two decimal places in all. So, put decimal point after two places from the right in the product obtained and get the required product as $0.75$.

Thus, $0.25\times 3=0.75$.
