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
The answer depends on what the decimal is.For example, 4 * 3.5 = 14But 4 * 3.6 = 14.4
When multiplying a whole number by a decimal with two places, ignore the decimal point and multiply as if you were multiplying two whole numbers. After you get the answer, re-insert the decimal point so that the product has two decimal places.
Dividing by decimal is different from dividing by whole number as you have to multiply by a number to remove the decimal.
When multiplying a whole number by a decimal with two places, ignore the decimal point and multiply as if you were multiplying two whole numbers. After you get the answer, re-insert the decimal point so that the product has two decimal places.
... less than the whole number.

whenever you multiply a whole number by a decimal you get a decimal. 2.9x100=290
... less than the whole number.
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
To express .20 as a whole number, you would multiply it by 100 to shift the decimal two places to the right. This would give you 20 as a whole number. Converting a decimal to a whole number involves removing the decimal point by multiplying the decimal by the appropriate power of 10.
True
The difference is that if you multiply with a whole number and then multiply with a decimal and you compare.You will notice the whole number is greater.You are very welcome.
It is false.0.2 * 25 = 5, which has no decimal places.
To multiply a whole number by a decimal, you can simply multiply the whole number by the decimal as if it were a fraction. First, ignore the decimal point and perform the multiplication. Then, count the number of decimal places in the decimal and adjust the result by moving the decimal point to the left that many places. For example, when multiplying 5 by 2.3, calculate 5 × 23 = 115, and then move the decimal point two places to the left, resulting in 1.15.
