To find the product of 2.3 and 6.5 using partial products, you can follow these steps:

1. **Break down the numbers**:
- 2.3 can be broken down into 2 and 0.3.
- 6.5 can be broken down into 6 and 0.5.

2. **Set up the partial products**:
- Calculate 2 x 6 = 12.
- Calculate 2 x 0.5 = 1.
- Calculate 0.3 x 6 = 1.8.
- Calculate 0.3 x 0.5 = 0.15.

3. **Add all the partial products together**:
- Add the results: 12 + 1 + 1.8 + 0.15.

4. **Perform the addition**:
- First, add 12 + 1 = 13.
- Then, add 13 + 1.8 = 14.8.
- Finally, add 14.8 + 0.15 = 14.95.

5. **Round if necessary** (optional) depending on context which might not be part of finding the product.

The final product of 2.3 x 6.5 using partial products is 14.95.

This is the sequence of steps using partial products:
- Break down the numbers
- Calculate the partial products
- Add all the partial products together

You may not need all steps outlined if choices are limited, focus on these key actions.
