See Explanation for step by step solution:
Explanation:
-
You have two numbers: 0.55 and 6,000. The parenthesis is indicating that you have to multiply the two together.
-
0.55 x 6000= ???
- So after the multiplication, you might be asking, "How do I write my answer?"
Well, after multiplying the two numbers together, you get 330,000--without decimals. Since you have two decimals in 0.55, count two zeros from right to left and get a final answer of 3,300.00, and you can drop out the last two zeros after the decimals point in order to get the final, final answer of 3,300
Hope this helps!
