Which statement about this product is true? 0.44×(-53/4)

a It is equal to 00 because 0.440.44 rounded to the nearest whole number is 00, and 00 times any number is 00.

B It is equal to -534-534 because 4444 is equal to 11, and 11 times any number equals that number.

c It is greater than -3-3 because 0.44×5340.44×534 is less than 12×612×6.


D It is less than -534-534 because multiplying by a number less than 11 gives a smaller number.

Answer with explanation:

The number whose product we have to find is,

[tex]0.44 \times \frac{-53}{4}\\\\=\frac{44}{100} \times \frac{-53}{4}\\\\=\frac{-53 \times 11}{100}\\\\=\frac{-583}{100}=-5.83[/tex]

Actual Product = -5.83

When, you will round it to nearest Hundredth it is equal to -6.

Now ⇒ starting from option A

0.44 when rounded to nearest whole number is equal to 0.

So,

[tex]0 \times\frac{-53}{4}=0[/tex]

is not closer to actual Product which is -5.83.

⇒Option B  

0.44 when rounded up≠1

Incorrect Statement

⇒Option C

-5.83, is not greater than -3.

Incorrect Statement

⇒Option D

True Statement

It is less than [tex]\frac{-53}{4}[/tex] because multiplying a rational number by a number less than 1 gives a smaller number.
