What is 0.75 × 0.4?

To find the product of 0.75 and 0.4, you can multiply the two numbers directly.

First, it's helpful to express the decimals as fractions for clearer multiplication. 0.75 can be rewritten as 75/100, which simplifies to 3/4, and 0.4 can be expressed as 4/10, simplifying to 2/5.

Now you can multiply these fractions:

(3/4) × (2/5) = (3 × 2) / (4 × 5) = 6 / 20.

Next, simplify 6/20, which can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2, resulting in 3/10.

Converting 3/10 back to decimal form gives us 0.3.

Therefore, the product of 0.75 and 0.4 is 0.3, making the appropriate answer that reflects this calculation.
