Question

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As the question is asking "How much his older brother weighs when Ben is 7.6kg while his older brother is 3 times?", we should multiply 7.6 by 3 in order to know Ben's older brother weight.

So,

1

7.6

x 3

------

22.8

The reason why it has a decimal because the multiplier (7.6) has a one decimal place. If that is, then we move the decimal place of the product to the left once.

And hence, your answer is 22.8
