You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(5.2 \cdot 9.6\)

MathBot Answer:

\[5.2 \cdot 9.6 = \frac{1248}{25} = 49.92\]

\[\begin{aligned}5.2 \cdot 9.6& = \left(5 + \frac{2}{10}\right) \cdot \left(9 + \frac{6}{10}\right)\\& = \left(5 + \frac{1}{5}\right) \cdot \left(9 + \frac{6}{10}\right)\\& = \frac{26}{5} \cdot \left(9 + \frac{6}{10}\right)\\& = \frac{26}{5} \cdot \left(9 + \frac{3}{5}\right)\\& = \frac{26}{5} \cdot \frac{48}{5}\\& = \frac{1248}{25}\end{aligned}\]
