To solve the expression [tex]\( 2 \times \frac{5}{2} \)[/tex], let's break it down step-by-step.
1. Start with the fraction [tex]\(\frac{5}{2}\)[/tex]:
The fraction [tex]\(\frac{5}{2}\)[/tex] represents the division of 5 by 2. If you divide 5 by 2, the result is 2.5.
2. Multiply by 2:
Next, you multiply the result of [tex]\(\frac{5}{2}\)[/tex], which is 2.5, by 2.
So, [tex]\( 2 \times 2.5 \)[/tex] equals 5.0.
Therefore, the answer to the expression [tex]\( 2 \times \frac{5}{2} \)[/tex] is 5.0. You should move the dot to the number 5.
