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:

  • 2.5 for 2.4.
  • 0.2 for 0.18

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.
