Question

Eric's goal is to walk 2.75 miles to and from the park every day for an entire year. If he meets his goal' how many miles will Eric walk?

Answer 1

Eric will walk 1003.75 miles in a year if he meets his goal.

Further Explanation

Eric goal is 2.75 miles/day

How many miles in one year?

$\boxed {1 year = 365 days }$

so in a year, Eric will walk:

$\boxed {2.75 miles \times 365 days }\\ \boxed {= 1003.75 miles }$

Here is how to do decimal numbers multiplication using standard algorithm (You can see in the attachment below how to multiply using the area model)

   2.75            ⇒ 2 decimal place

   365   x        ⇒ 0 decimal place (a whole numbers)

  1375

 1650

825  +

1003.75           ⇒ 2 decimal place

Here how to determine where the decimal point, from the calculation above

First factor has 2 decimal place

Second factor has no decimal place,

so the result would have 2 decimal place (2+0)

In doing decimal numbers multiplication we don't need to line the decimal place.
