If the two decimal numbers have x and y digits after the decimal points, then the product has (x + y) digits after the decimal point.
When you multiply decimals, the decimal point is placed in the product.
In long division with decimals, you place the decimal point in the quotient directly above the decimal point in the dividend (the number being divided). If the divisor has a decimal, you can move the decimal point to the right until it becomes a whole number, and you must do the same with the dividend. After aligning the decimal points, proceed with the division as you would with whole numbers.
Expressed as a decimal fraction, 0.01 is equal to one hundredth. The hundredths place is the second digit after the decimal point - the first is the tenths place.
Possibly, as decimals can't be decimals without decimal points.
two.
When you multiply decimals, the decimal point is placed in the product.
If the two multiplicands have X and Y digits after the decimal place then their product (before removing any trailing 0s) has (X+Y) digits after the decimal point.
It is the third digit after the decimal point.
It is the digit to the right of the decimal point. eg. 11.26. the 2 is in the tenths place
If two decimal numbers have x and y digits after the decimal point respectively, then their product has (x + y) digits after the decimal point.
No. A decimal is a representation of a number such that the place value of any digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. It does not require a decimal point. So the decimal numbers, 3 and 4, can be multiplied together to give 1100 in binary.
You do the multiplication in exactly the same way. The only extra thing is that when multiplying decimals, you need to place the decimal point (or decimal comma - depending on your country) in the correct position. If one number has, for example, 3 digits after the decimal point, and the other 4, you need to place the decimal point in the result (BEFORE eliminating unnecessary zeros) in such a way that there are, in this example, 7 digits (3 + 4) to the right of the decimal point.
Expressed as a decimal fraction, 0.01 is equal to one hundredth. The hundredths place is the second digit after the decimal point - the first is the tenths place.

The decimal point, which I think you meant, is lined up vertically in a row of numbers to be summed.
