You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(1.5 \cdot 1.5\)

MathBot Answer:

\[1.5 \cdot 1.5 = \frac{9}{4} = 2.25\]

\[\begin{aligned}1.5 \cdot 1.5& = \left(1 + \frac{5}{10}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{5}{10}\right)\\& = \left(1 + \frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{5}{10}\right)\\& = \frac{3}{2} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{5}{10}\right)\\& = \frac{3}{2} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{1}{2}\right)\\& = \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2}\\& = \frac{9}{4}\end{aligned}\]
