\[2.42 \cdot 1.23 = \frac{14883}{5000} = 2.9766\]

\[\begin{aligned}2.42 \cdot 1.23& = \left(2 + \frac{42}{100}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{23}{100}\right)\\& = \left(2 + \frac{21}{50}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{23}{100}\right)\\& = \frac{121}{50} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{23}{100}\right)\\& = \frac{121}{50} \cdot \frac{123}{100}\\& = \frac{14883}{5000}\end{aligned}\]
