Evaluate

$$1592$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 0.6 and 3.98 to get 2.388.

$$\frac{2.388}{1.5\times 10^{-3}}$$

Calculate 10 to the power of -3 and get \frac{1}{1000}.

$$\frac{2.388}{1.5\times \frac{1}{1000}}$$

Multiply 1.5 and \frac{1}{1000} to get \frac{3}{2000}.

$$\frac{2.388}{\frac{3}{2000}}$$
