Answer:

23.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Jordan has entered 3.4 x 6.8 on his calculator.

3.4 x 6.8 = (34/10) x (68/10) = (34 x 68) / (100) = 23.12

Or an easier way would be, observing the two numbers.

In 3.4 , there is one digit after decimal point.

In 6.8 there is one digit after decimal point.

So in their product there should be two digits after the decimal point.

So the answer is <em>23.12</em>
