You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(2.5 \cdot 3.72\)

MathBot Answer:

\[2.5 \cdot 3.72 = \frac{93}{10} = 9.3\]


\[\begin{aligned}2.5 \cdot 3.72& = \left(2 + \frac{5}{10}\right) \cdot \left(3 + \frac{72}{100}\right)\\& = \left(2 + \frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \left(3 + \frac{72}{100}\right)\\& = \frac{5}{2} \cdot \left(3 + \frac{72}{100}\right)\\& = \frac{5}{2} \cdot \left(3 + \frac{18}{25}\right)\\& = \frac{5}{2} \cdot \frac{93}{25}\\& = \frac{93}{10}\end{aligned}\]
