Certainly! Let's go through each calculation step by step:
1. For the first expression:
[tex]\[
8 \times 2.3
\][/tex]
You multiply 8 by 2.3 grams. The multiplication yields:
[tex]\[
8 \times 2.3 = 18.4 \text{ grams}
\][/tex]
2. For the second expression:
[tex]\[
3 \times 40.52
\][/tex]
You multiply 3 by 40.52. The multiplication yields:
[tex]\[
3 \times 40.52 = 121.56
\][/tex]
So the final solutions are:
[tex]\[
8 \times 2.3 \text{ grams} = 18.4 \text{ grams}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
3 \times 40.52 = 121.56
\][/tex]
Thus, the answer to the expressions provided is:
[tex]\[
18.4 \text{ grams} \quad \text{and} \quad 121.56
\][/tex]
