Question

Solve for the product of 1,325 x 10₁ = ________. Then, explain how you moved the decimal to get the product.

Answer 1

Answer:

13,250.0

When we multiply a number with 10, the decimal place of the original number will move to the right by one step.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the number 1,325 as 1325.00

Now, we have to solve the product of $1,325 \times 10^{1}$

So, $1,325 \times 10^{1}$

= $1,325.00 \times 10^{1}$

= 13,250.0 (Answer)

Therefore, when we multiply a number with 10, the decimal place of the original number will move to the right by one step and when we divide a number with 10, then the decimal place of the original number will move by one step to the left. (Answer)
