1 answer

To find the sum of the product of 5 and 0.25 and the product of 0.75 and 8, we can proceed with the following steps:

  1. Calculate the product of 5 and 0.25: \[ 5 \times 0.25 = 1.25 \]

  2. Calculate the product of 0.75 and 8: \[ 0.75 \times 8 = 6 \]

  3. Now, add the two results together: \[ 1.25 + 6 = 7.25 \]

Therefore, the sum of the product of 5 and 0.25 and the product of 0.75 and 8 is \(\boxed{7.25}\).
