Answer:
31.96
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of 2 numbers is simply one number multiplied by another
6.8 x 4.7 = 31.96
As a sanity check, just round the numbers off to a whole numbers and take a product of those two:
i.e 6.8 rounded off to the nearest whole number is 7 and 4.7 rounded off to the nearest whole number is 5.
7 x 5 = 35
If you look at the possible answers, only 31.96 is anywhere close to 35, hence you can be be more confident that your answer of 31.96 is correct.
