You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(0.75 \cdot 1.2\)

MathBot Answer:

\[0.75 \cdot 1.2 = \frac{9}{10} = 0.9\]


\[\begin{aligned}0.75 \cdot 1.2& = \frac{75}{100} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{2}{10}\right)\\& = \frac{75}{100} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{1}{5}\right)\\& = \frac{75}{100} \cdot \frac{6}{5}\\& = \frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{6}{5}\\& = \frac{9}{10}\end{aligned}\]
