Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, according to associative property of multiplication,
a(bc) = (ab)c,
Where a, b and c are any real numbers,
Here, the given expression,
2 × ( 5 × 1.5 ),
By applying the associative property of multiplication,
( 2 × 5 ) × 1.5,
Hence, the appropriate expression in the first box is '(2×5)'
And, the appropriate number in the second box is '1.5'.
