Question

Is this expression equivalent to 1.5?

0.15 x 100

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

You can do this in two ways-

You can multiply 0.15 and 100, and you will get 15.

-OR-

You can move the decimal points two places to the right since 100 has two zeros. (You could move it to the right three if it were 1000 because it has three 0s)

Answer 2

False

We can simplify the expression to be sure: 100 * 0.15 = 15
