Consider the numbers A and B where A has m digits after the decimal point and B has n digits.
Then find the multiple A'*B' where A' is A without its decimal point, and B' is B without its decimal point.
In that answer insert the decimal point so that there are (m+n) digits after the decimal point.

The product of two rational numbers is a rational number. All decimal numbers that terminate or end with a repeating sequence of digits are rational numbers. As both 0.54732814 (as written) and 0.5 are terminating decimals, they are both rational numbers. As 0.54732814 is a rational number and 0.5 is a rational number, their product will also be a rational number.
