A Correct answer
Explanation

Round each number to the nearest integer: 0.49 ≈ 0.5, 1.998 ≈ 2, 6.98 ≈ 7. Then multiply: 0.5 × 2 × 7 = 7. This approximation gives us the closest answer among the options. Options like 14, 28, 35 would be the result if we multiplied incorrectly, while 1 is far too small.
