Given:

1.7

Determine what would happen when multipled by 10.

Solution:

If we multiply 10 by 1.7, since 1.7 is a decimal, then the place value of the decimal will move one place to the left. If we multiply 100, the place value will move 2 places, 3 places for thousand, and so on and so forth.

= (1.7)(10)

= 17

Final answer:

 = 17
