\[\frac{2.8}{100} \cdot 1,460 = \frac{1022}{25} = 40.88\]

\[\begin{aligned}\frac{2.8}{100} \cdot 1,460& = \left(2 + \frac{8}{10}\right) \cdot \frac{1460}{100}\\& = \left(2 + \frac{4}{5}\right) \cdot \frac{1460}{100}\\& = \frac{14}{5} \cdot \frac{1460}{100}\\& = \frac{7}{250} \cdot 1460\\& = \frac{1022}{25}\end{aligned}\]
