Answer 2

Hello!

All you have to do to solve this is simply multiply! Just set it up like this:

  4 6 6
  50.78 (8 x 8 is 64, so carry the 6.)
  x0.18   (7 x 8 is 56, then you just add the 6 which gives you 62. Carry the 6.)
  --------  (8 x 0 = 0 so, just add the six which gives you 6.)
4 06.24   (5 x 8 = 40, just carry the 4.
507.80
+-----------   (Put a 0 in the one's place rule)
9.1404   (1 x 8 =8)
             (1 x 7 =7)
             (1 x 0 = 0)
             (1 x 5 = 5)
             (ANYTHING TIMES 0 IS 0.)

So, your answer would be 9.1404 or rounded would be 9.  However, to find the value it would simply be  9.135.

I hope this helped!
