You simply multiply the two numbers together ignoring the decimal point. You then count the number of decimal places in each of the multiplicands and add them together. In the product, you put the decimal point so that there as many digits after the decimal point as that sum.For example, to multiply 2.63 by 3.271263 * 3271 = 860273.There are 2 digits after the decimal point in the first multiplicand and 3 in the second. 2 + 3 = 5So the decimal point in the answer is placed so that there are 5 digit after it: 8.60273
