Compatible numbers are simply the approximated value of a number
Using the compatible numbers, the product of 2.4 and 0.18 is 0.5
The compatible numbers are given as:
The product is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{2.4 \times 0.18}[/tex]
Replace 2.4 and 0.18 with their compatible numbers, 2.5 and 0.2, respectively
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{2.4 \times 0.18 =2.5 \times 0.2}[/tex]
Calculate the product of 2.5 and 0.2
[tex]\mathbf{2.4 \times 0.18 =0.5}[/tex]
Hence, the product of 2.4 and. 0.18 is 0.5.
