Given:

5600.9 x 19.90

Solve.

Solution:

In order to multiply numbers, we must always take note of the number signs, whereas if two numbers have an opposite sign, then the result will be negative, hence if the numbers have the same sign, then the result will be positive. In our case we have two positive numbers, therefore the result will be positive. One thing we must also take note is the significant figures. It is a standard rule of multiplication to follow the lowest significant figures, hence we the product must have 4 significant figures if we apply the rule.

= 5600.9 x 19.90

= 111,459.1

Applying significant figures, we'll have.

= 111,500

Final answer:

= 111,459.1 or 111, 500
