What is 0.0375 × 8,000?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. 300
- Step 1: 0.0375 × 8,000 = 375 × 8,000 ÷ 10,000. Step 2. 375 × 8 = 3,000, so 3,000,000 ÷ 10,000 = 300. Answer: 300. Why not the others: 30: This is a factor of 10 too small. 3,000: This is a factor of 10 too large. 30,000: This is a factor of 100 too large.
