Question

The product of two decimals is 1.5008. If one of them is 0.56, what is the other ?

• A. 2.86
• B. 26.8
• C. 2.68
• D. 0.268

Answer 1

The correct option is C 2.68

Product of given decimals = 1.5008
First number = 0.56
Let the second number be x.
Product = first number $\times$ x
$\Rightarrow$ 1.5008 = 0.56 $\times$ x
$\Rightarrow$ x = 1.5008 $÷$ 0.56
$\Rightarrow$ x = 2.68
Therefore, the second number is 2.68.
