$9.8 × 10.2$
✓
Answer
Here, we will use the identity $(a - b) (a + b) = a^2- b^2$
Let us consider the following expression:
$9.8 × 10.2$
$\because\frac{9.8+10.2}{2}=\frac{20}{2}=10,$therefore, we will write the above product as:
$9.8 × 10.2$
$= (10 - 0.2) (10 + 0.2)$
$= (10)^2- (0.2)^2$
$= 100 - 0.04$
$= 99.96$
Thus, the answer $99.96$
