What is the rule of multipliying decimal?
One way is to multiply the numbers ignoring the decimal point. If the first multiplicand has d1 digits after the decimal point, and the second has d2 digits after the decimal point, then their product has (d1 + d2) digits after the decimal point.An alternative for the second stage is to estimate the answer to determine where the decimal point should go.
How many digits should the sum have after the decimal point?
The answer depends on how many decimal places are in the summands.
Why is the size of a decimal number not necessarily determined by the number of decimal places notated?
Digits after (to the right of) the decimal point contribute to the accuracy of the number, not its magnitude (or size). So only the digits to the left of the decimal point contribute to the magnitude.

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.
Write 53.62 billion in digits?
You must add 9 digits (or 12 digits, depending on the country) after the decimal point, and eliminate the decimal point. Thus (assuming the "short scale") you get: 53,620,000,000.You must add 9 digits (or 12 digits, depending on the country) after the decimal point, and eliminate the decimal point.
