Answer to Problem 1E

The simplified value of the expression $6.5\left(0.13\right)$ is $0.845$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The expression $6.5\left(0.13\right)$ .

Formula used:

Product of two real numbers is obtained when they are multiplied together. That is two or more numbers are separated by multiplication signs $\left(\right),\times \text{ or }\cdot$ .

Calculation:

Consider the expression $6.5\left(0.13\right)$ .

Recall that product of two real numbers is obtained when they are multiplied together. That is two or more numbers are separated by multiplication signs $\left(\right),\times \text{ or }\cdot$ .

Simplify it,

  $\begin{array}{c}6.5\left(0.13\right)=6.5\cdot 0.13\\ =0.845\end{array}$

Thus, the simplified value of the expression $6.5\left(0.13\right)$ is $0.845$ .
