  1. 62*6.6666 = 413.3292


  2. If your teacher is a stickler for proper use of significant figures, you might want to drop anything right of the decimal point, and use 410, or _maybe_ 413bbls, if you insist on more digits than in the input data, 413+1/3 or 413.3333333.....

    6 + 8/12 = 6+2/3

    6+2/3 * 62 = 413+1/3
