The true statement is that you can predict whether the product will be less than or greater either of the factors, and the prediction is that the product will be less than either of the factors
The statement is given as:
Predict whether the product of two decimal numbers less than 1 will be less than or greater either of the factors
Let the product equation be represented as:
x * y = z
Where
x and y are decimal numbers less than 1
So, we have
x < 1 and y < 1
Example of such numbers are:
x = 0.1 and y = 0.2
So, we have:
x * y = 0.1 * 0.2
Evaluate the product
x * y = 0.02
The decimal number 0.02 is less than 0.1 and 0.2
This is the same for all decimal numbers with the given characteristics
Hence, the true statement is that you can predict whether the product will be less than or greater either of the factors, and the prediction is that the product will be less than either of the factors
