Find the value of \(0.03 \times 0.0124\).
Answer: B
To multiply decimals, first multiply the numbers ignoring the decimal points: 3 × 124 = 372.
Now, count the total number of decimal places in the original numbers. 0.03 has 2 decimal places, and 0.0124 has 4 decimal places. The total is 2 + 4 = 6 decimal places.
Place the decimal point in the result so that it has 6 decimal places: 0.000372.
