Express your answer to the nearest tenth. $$ \frac{1,000,000}{400,000} 	imes \frac{1.5}{1}=\frac{1}{	ext { Enter a number as an exact integer or decima }} $$

1. Simplify the first fraction:
   $$
   \frac{1,000,000}{400,000} = \frac{1,000,000 \div 100,000}{400,000 \div 100,000} = \frac{10}{4} = 2.5
   $$

2. Multiply by $$\frac{1.5}{1}$$:
   $$
   2.5 \times 1.5 = 3.75
   $$

3. The equation is now:
   $$
   3.75 = \frac{1}{x}
   $$
   To solve for $$x$$, take the reciprocal of both sides:
   $$
   x = \frac{1}{3.75} \approx 0.2667
   $$

4. Rounding $$0.2667$$ to the nearest tenth gives:
   $$
   x \approx 0.3
   $$

Thus, the final answer is $$0.3$$.
$$ x \approx 0.3 $$

Express your answer to the nearest tenth. \( \frac{1,000,000}{400,000} \times \frac{1.5}{1}=\frac{1}{\text { Enter a number as an exact integer or decima }} \)
