The statement "The product of 83 and 65 is less than 65" is false.

If you multiply something by something greater than one it gets bigger.

for example
"...... The product of 8 thirds and 6 fifths is greater than 8 thirds ......." ???
8/3 * 6/5
6/5 is greater than one ( 1.2 )
so true

Yes, you are correct. The statement "The product of 8 thirds and 6 fifths is greater than 8 thirds" is true. When you multiply a number by something greater than one, the result is larger than the original number.

To determine which statement is true, we need to compare the given numbers and calculate their products.

A) The product of 83 and 65 is greater than 83.
To calculate this, multiply 83 by 65.
83 * 65 = 5395

Since 5395 is greater than 83, statement A is true.

B) The product of 45 and 3 is greater than 3.
To calculate this, multiply 45 by 3.
45 * 3 = 135

Since 135 is greater than 3, statement B is true.

C) The product of 45 and 3 is less than 45.
To calculate this, multiply 45 by 3.
45 * 3 = 135

Since 135 is equal to 135, statement C is false.

D) The product of 83 and 65 is less than 65.
To calculate this, multiply 83 by 65.
83 * 65 = 5395

Since 5395 is greater than 65, statement D is false.

Based on the calculations, we can conclude that statements A and B are true. So the correct answer is A.
