1
Rationale 1: When multiplying 0.25 by 1.47 begin by first calculating 25 x 147 = 3675. Then count the total number of decimal places which is 4. From the number 5, count back four spaces or 0.3675. Next, look at the number and determine the tenth decimal place. This is the number 3. The next number to 3 is 6 which is greater than 5. This means that the number can be rounded up to 4. The correct answer is 0.4.
