45.728 x 3.2 = ?
45.728 x 3.2 = ?
Multiply the numbers out in long format, then move the decimal point over the total number of decimal points in the two numbers (3 in the first, 1 in the second, so 4 total):
45.728 * 3.2 = 91456
91456 + 1371840 = 1,463,296 → 146.3296
Or just count the decimal points in the answer and make sure it's 4.

We can approximate the value of y pretty quickly:
y ≈ 1(0.50)(52) = 26
Since y = 0.25x = (1/4)x we know that x = 4y ≈ 4(26) = 104

It's much easier to work with whole numbers, so we'll ignore the decimals for the first step: 5 x 12 = 60
Now look at the decimals. To add them back in, think of 60 as 60.0. Now move the decimal point four places to the left: 0.5 x 0.012 = .0060 = .006

At the farmer's market, oranges are $0.30 each, apples are $0.25 each, bananas are $0.40 each, and tomatoes are $0.60 each. If Scott buys 3 oranges, 7 apples, 4 bananas, and 8 tomatoes, how much does he spend?

To find out how much Scott spends, we need to multiply the quantity of each fruit by its price and add them all up.
3 * $0.30 + 7 * $0.25 + 4 * $0.40 + 8 * $0.60 = $9.05
