Calculate the Product: 11.2 × 5.6 × 7.3 Step by Step

According to the order of operations rules, we will solve the exercise from left to right since multiplication is the only operation in it.

We will solve the left exercise vertically to avoid confusion and get:

$11.2\\\times5.6\\=62.72$

It's important to maintain correct positioning of the exercise, with the decimal point serving as an anchor.
Then we can multiply in order, first the ones digit of the first number by the ones digit of the second number,
then the tens digit of the first number by the ones digit of the second number, and so on.

Now we'll get the exercise:

$62.72\times7.3=$

Let's remember that:

$7.3=7.30$

We will solve the exercise vertically as well, remembering the rules about keeping the decimal point aligned and multiplying in order (ones, tens, and so on)

And we'll get:

$457.856$
