first u set up your problem lining up not the decimals but the last numbers. Then u multiply the last number by the number on top then go down the row multiplying.Then u start with the next number and place it under the answers to the first one and don't forget an atomatic 0 and add one every number you do. Then u add the numbers together. then u count how many numbers were behind the decimals and move ur decimal over that many places to ur answer and u get it.

You multiply the numbers like you multiply integers. Count how many numbers are after the decimal points in both numbers combined and move the decimal point in front of the answer.
line up the numbers and decimals multiply regularly then bring the decimal down
To find the product of 5.93 and 4.6, you simply multiply these two numbers together. The result is 27.238. This is because when you multiply a decimal by another decimal, you multiply as if they were whole numbers and then adjust the decimal places in the final answer.
Example of multiplying whole decimal numbers: 2.37 × 3.56 = 8.4372 Remove the decimal point and multiply as for whole numbers: 237 × 356 = 84372 Then add the decimal point, thus : 8.4372
Often, yes. But it depends on the numbers. For example, if you multiply 1.5 x 2, you get 3 as the answer (whole number). But if you multiply 1.5 x 3, you get a decimal of 4.5
