UNIT 15: DECIMAL MULTIPLICATION
To multiply 2 decimals, you merely multiply the 2
numbers
together, ignoring the decimal points. Then, when you have your answer (called the "product"), you add the number of digits to the right of the decimal point in each number together
and place the decimal in your answer (product) that many
places from the RIGHT.
YOU DON'T LINE UP THE DECIMAL
POINTS!
