|
|
<h2>How to Multiply Decimals</h2>
|
|
<p>Just follow these steps:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Multiply normally, ignoring the decimal points.</li>
|
|
<li><b>Then</b> put the decimal point in the answer - it will have as many decimal places as the two original numbers combined.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>In other words, just count up how many numbers are after the decimal point in <i>both</i> numbers you are multiplying, then the answer should have that many numbers after <i>its</i> decimal point. </p>
|
|
<p> </p>
|
|
<div class="example">
|
|
<h3>Example: Multiply 0.03 by 1.1</h3>
|
|
<table border="0" align="center">
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><div align="right">start with:</div></td>
|
|
<td width="20"> </td>
|
|
<td nowrap><b>0.03 × 1.1</b></td>
|
|

|
|
<tr>

|
<td><div align="right">multiply without decimal points:</div></td>

|
|
<td nowrap><b>3 × 11 = 33</b></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><div align="right">0.03 has <b>2 decimal places</b>,<br />
|
|
and 1.1 has <b>1 decimal place</b>, <br />
|
|
so the answer has <b>3 decimal places</b>:</div></td>
|
|
<td> </td>
|
|
<td valign="bottom" nowrap><b>0.033</b></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p> </p>
|
|
<div class="simple">
|
|
<table border="0" align="center">

</table>

</div>
|
|
|
|
<h2>How Does It Work?</h2>
|
|
<p>Because when you multiply without the decimal point, you are really shifting the decimal point to the right to <b>get it out of the way</b>:</p>
|
|
<div class="clear">
|
|
<table border="0" align="center">
|
|
<tr align="center">
|
|
<td><i>Original:</i></td>
|
|
<td><i></i></td>
|
|
<td><i>1 Move:</i></td>
|
|
<td><i></i></td>
|
|
<td><i>2 Moves:</i></td>
|
|
<td><i></i></td>
|
|
<td><i>3 Moves:</i></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr align="center">
|
|
<td>0.03 × 1.1</td>
|
|
<td> <img src="images/arrow.gif" width="30" height="30" alt="arrow" /> </td>
|
|
<td><b>0.3</b> × 1.1</td>
|
|
<td> <img src="images/arrow.gif" width="30" height="30" alt="arrow" /> </td>
|
|
<td><b>3.</b> × 1.1</td>
|
|
<td> <img src="images/arrow.gif" width="30" height="30" alt="arrow" /> </td>
|
|
<td><b>3.</b> ×<b> 11.</b></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Then we do the (now easy) multiplication:</p>
|
|
<p align="center" class="large">3. × 11. = 33.</p>
|
|
<p>But remember, we did 3 Moves of the decimal point, so we need to undo that:</p>
|
|
<table border="0" align="center">
|
|
<tr align="center">
|
|
<td><i>3 Moves:</i></td>
|
|
<td><i></i></td>
|
|
<td><i>2 Moves:</i></td>
|
|
<td><i></i></td>
|
|
<td><i>1 Move:</i></td>
|
|
<td><i></i></td>
|
|
<td><i>Correct</i></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr align="center">
|
|
<td><b>33.</b></td>
|
|
<td><img src="images/arrow.gif" width="30" height="30" alt="arrow" /></td>
|
|
<td><b>3.3</b></td>

<h2>Common Sense</h2>
|
|
<p>As a final check you can put your "common sense" hat on and think <b><i>"is that the right size?"</i></b>, because you don't want to pay ten times too much for anything, nor get only one-tenth of what you need!</p>
|
|
<p> And that's all. </p>
|
|
<p class="center80">Just remember: the answer should have the same number of decimal places as are in both the numbers you are multiplying.</p><p> </p>
