Formula for Multiplication in Appropriate Language

Formula Translation

To multiply 0.23 by 10, the formula in appropriate programming or analytical language, such as Python, R, or DAX, can be expressed as:

Python

result = 0.23 * 10

R

result <- 0.23 * 10

DAX

Result = 0.23 * 10

Explanation of the Formula

• Multiplication Operator (*): This operator is used to perform multiplication between two numeric values.
• Operands: In this instance:
  • The first operand is 0.23, which is a decimal (float) representation.
  • The second operand is 10, which is an integer.
• Result: The computation will yield 2.3, as multiplying 0.23 by 10 scales the decimal value tenfold.

Practical Illustration

Assuming we would like to calculate the total cost if an item priced at 0.23 currency units is purchased 10 times.

Python Example

# Price of one item
price_per_item = 0.23
# Quantity of items purchased
quantity = 10
# Total cost calculation
total_cost = price_per_item * quantity
print(total_cost)  # Output will be 2.3

R Example

# Price of one item
price_per_item <- 0.23
# Quantity of items purchased
quantity <- 10
# Total cost calculation
total_cost <- price_per_item * quantity
print(total_cost)  # Output will show 2.3

DAX Example

TotalCost = 0.23 * 10
-- This can be visualized in a Power BI report.

Conclusion

The multiplication of 0.23 by 10 is straightforward across various programming languages, yielding a result of 2.3. This demonstrates a fundamental operation usable in real-world financial calculations, inventory management, and data analysis tasks.
