Default multiply

i have 3.75 in one cell and then in another cell i have =b2/2 and the answer
is 1.88.

i am trying to multiply it by 5 and when i do this i put =c2*5 and it gives
me the answer 9.375 and when i check my calculator it is wrong.

how can i get the right answer?

even when i put 1.88*5 it still gives me 9.375. what am i doing wrong?
