Question

If the following area model represents the final product value of 32.48, then the missing values A and B are _______.

• A. A = 6.63
  B = 8.05
• B. A = 8.05
  B = 6.63
• C. A = 3.91
  B = 13.65
• D. A = 13.65
  B = 3.91

Answer 1

The correct option is D A = 13.65

B = 3.91
To calculate the given area model, we multiply decimals as follows:


Now, the missing values are A and B.

Calculating value of A, we get:


Calculating value of B, we get:


Now, comparing these results with the given model, we find:


Hence, the missing values A and B are:
A = 13.65 and B = 3.91
