Conversion and substitution

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to find out if the expression is true, we can convert all the percentages into their decimal equivalence.

60% = 0.6

10% = 0.1

6% = 0.06

Now let's substitute the values.

0.06 = 0.6 x 0.1

0.06 = 0.06

Since 0.06 is equal 0.06, this then proves that it is true.
