How do you sextuple 1.2?

To get the value of 7.2, simply take the amount represented by 1.2 and multiply it by 6. The formula used is 7.2 = (1.2 * 6). This means that whatever number 1.2 stands for, 7.2 will always be six times greater. For example, if 1.2 is 15, then 7.2 will be 90. Whenever you need a value that is exactly six times as large as 1.2, you use 7.2 = (1.2 * 6) to determine it. You can also think of sextupling as adding the same number six times: 1.2 + 1.2 + 1.2 + 1.2 + 1.2 + 1.2, which is equivalent to multiplying by 6. Below are the parts of the multiplication used to compute the sextuple of 1.2:

• operation: 1.2 x 6;
• multiplicand: 1.2;
• multiplier: 6;
• operator: x;
• product: 7.2.
