When multiplying two factors each one with a decimal place how many decimal places should the answer have?
You need to add up the number of digits to the right of the decimal to find the number of digits in the answer. If the first factor has 2 digits to the right of the decimal point and the second factor has 3, the final answer will have 5 digits to the right of the decimal point.

How do you do the math problem 7.8 times 0.03?
When doing it by pencil and paper (or mentally): 1) ignoring the decimal points multiply the numbers together; 2) count how many digits in total are after the decimal points in the multiplication; 3) put the decimal point into the answer (inserting leading zeros if necessary) so that the same number of digits follow the decimal point; 4) any trailing zeros can be not written. For 7.8 × 0.03 this leads to: 78 × 3 = 234 in 7.8 there is 1 digit after the decimal point in 0.03 there are 2 digits after the decimal point Thus in 7.8 × 0.03 there are 1 + 2 = 3 digits in total after the decimal point, and the answer must also have 3 digits after the decimal point. → 7.8 × 0.03 = 0.234 If the question had been 0.05 × 0.4 this leads to: 5 × 4 = 20 0.05 × 0.4 has 2 + 1 = 3 digits after the decimal point Thus 0.05 × 0.4 = 0.020 which has 3 digits after the decimal point but would [normally] be written without the trailing zero as 0.02 (only having 2 digits after the decimal point).

How much did gas cost in 1992?
I was gas station attendant in '81 when pumps first required changeover to 3 digits per gallon(when it first hit 1.00 per gallon for hi-test). By the year 2002 gas was still close to one dollar or 1.20 per gallon for regular. There wasn't a whole lotta fluctuation for those 20 or so years... all over now.
Is a decimal greater when there are 2 decimals or 3?
Neither. The number of digits after the decimal point is a measure of the accuracy, not magnitude.

When multiplying decimals where do you move the decimal?
the answer is it stays in the same place.* * * * *Not quite.Suppose you want to multiply two decimal numbers A and B. Multiply the two numbers ignoring the decimal points.Count the number of digits after the decimal point in the number A.Count the number of digits after the decimal point in the number B.Add these two numbers together. This is the number of digits you want after the decimal point in the answer. So count back from the end.Example:2.54 * 3.5 (this is number of centimetres in 3.5 inches)254*35 = 8890Number of digits after the decimal point in 2.54 is 2 (5 and 4).Number of digits after the decimal point in 3.5 is 1 (5).2 + 1 = 3 so there must be 3 digits after the decimal point in the answer.Therefore 8890 becomes 8.890NOW, you can simplify it to 8.89
