0.25 x 360 equals

Answer 1

90

Answer 2

0.25 X 360 = 90

To mulyply decimals by long multiplication.

360

x 25 ( NB we have temporarily dropped the decimal point).

---

7200 (360 x 20)

1800 (360 x 5)

---

9000

=====

We note that there were only 2 decimals places in the multiplicands. So the answer has 2 decimal places.

Hence 9000 becomes , 90,00 or just plain '90'.

Another way is to note that ' 0.25 = 1/4'

So again multiply 360 x 1/4

Multiplication of fractions.

360/1 x 1/4 =

Cancel down by '4'

90/1 X 1/1 = 90/1 = 90

Another 'Short Circuit' method. is to note that 9 x 4 = 36

Hence 90 x 4 = 360

So 360/ 4 - 360 x 1/4 = 90 .

Careful with this last method, 'Short Circuits; can be dangerous, mabd so you my end up with the wrong answer.

Answer 3
