When doing it by pencil and paper (or mentally):
1) ignoring the decimal points multiply the numbers together;
2) count how many digits in total are after the decimal points in the multiplication;
3) put the decimal point into the answer (inserting leading zeros if necessary) so that the same number of digits follow the decimal point;
4) any trailing zeros can be not written.
For 7.8 × 0.03 this leads to:
78 × 3 = 234
in 7.8 there is 1 digit after the decimal point
in 0.03 there are 2 digits after the decimal point
Thus in 7.8 × 0.03 there are 1 + 2 = 3 digits in total after the decimal point, and the answer must also have 3 digits after the decimal point.
→ 7.8 × 0.03 = 0.234
If the question had been 0.05 × 0.4 this leads to:
5 × 4 = 20
0.05 × 0.4 has 2 + 1 = 3 digits after the decimal point
Thus 0.05 × 0.4 = 0.020 which has 3 digits after the decimal point but would [normally] be written without the trailing zero as 0.02 (only having 2 digits after the decimal point).
You can literally type 16*78 into google to find the answer. Or use a calculator. But when I get a problem like this I usually start off by not being a retard. Save
Exactly 78 times
9.75 times 8 equals 78.
It is: 78 times 3,237 = 252,486
1 times 78
82
the partial products for 84 and 78 6000,500,50,and 2 :)
6 times 13 equals 78 3 times 26 equals 78 2 times 39 equals 78 and 1 times 78 equals 78
78 * 78 = 6,084

I actually just had this exact problem on a math assignment and it stumped me for a bit then it dawned on me 14+2y=78 or 2y+14=78 most teachers prefer the 2nd answer because the variable comes first. Hope this helps :)
78 times 8 is 969
6 times what = 78
Exactly 78 times
No because 78 times 78 doesnt equal 78
9.75 times 8 equals 78.
2 x 39 equals 78
