Yes. Line up them up when you're adding, too.
line up the demials
39.63 +42.35 ------------ 81.98 Just line up the decimals and then add.
1. When adding, the decimals MUST line up: 012.3 +32.1 2. When multiplying, you dont have to put the decimals side by side: 12.3 x323.55 Then you count how many numbers are after the decimals, which, in this case, is three. Hope it helped!
you can line up the decimals
Because you could mess up and add the wrong numbers together.
Adding and subtracting decimals is easy. When you put the numbers one above the other, line up the decimals vertically and treat as you would any whole number just keep the decimals in line and bring it straight down to your answer.

Hey awesome Question. The answer is no you do not have to line up the decimals when multyping only when adding and subtracting. The main thing is when you multiply make sure you put the decimal in the right place in your answer. YOu count how may places their are behind the decimals in BOTH numbers then you make sure their are that many places behind the decimal in you answer. :)

When adding numbers with decimals always make sure the decimal points are lined up. That is the only way to be sure that the person will be adding them up right.
you only line the decimals up when you are subtracting or adding not when you are multiplying im not sure about division...

That is because if you don't, you will get the wrong answer. It is ALWAYS important to LINE up the decimals.
Treat them exactly like you would adding up whole numbers but align all the columns so that the decimals points are all in line/column and carry this point (and its position) down into the answer. 077.2 033.05 110.91 -------- 221.16
