Drag all of the necessary steps into the box to find the product of 2.3 x 6.5 using partial products. Some choices may not used

Answer 1

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.
