Question

Multiply $35.7\times 0.08$

Answer 1

Multiplying decimal numbers-

Ignore the decimal point and multiply

$357\times 8=2856\left[\because 008=8\right]$

Count the number of digits after the decimal point in both the numbers, we have $1$digit after decimal in $35.7$ and $2$digits in $0.08$

So, place the decimal after three digits from the right in the product. $\left[\because 1+2=3\right]$

$35.7\times 0.08=2.856$

Hence , product of $35.7\times 0.08$is $2.856$
