When you multiply decimals, you just ignore the decimal until the end, then, to find the amount of decimal places in your answer, you add the amount of decimal places in both your factors
The product will have at most 2 decimal places.
If two decimal number have X and Y decimal places, respectively, then the raw product (before removing any trailing zeros) of the two numbers will have (X + Y) decimal places.
It depends on what numbers you are multiplying and how many decimals places they each have. It doesn't always haveto move to the right.
A simple trick with multiplying decimal numbers is to remove the decimals, multiply the two numbers, then add the decimals back in. The number of decimals you add back in is the total number of decimal places. For example, the stated problem has 1 decimal places in 2.1 and 2 decimal places in 5.01. So first we do the following: 21x501=10521 Now we add 1+2=3 decimal places into the result above: 10.521 That's the answer.
The number of decimal places for the product will be the summation of the amount of decimal places of the 2 factors. For example, if your products have 2 decimals each to the right of zero then the product will have an answer with 4 decimals to the right of zero.
Multiplying decimals: Example: 2.5 x 1.3 = 3.25 Start by removing the decimal points, thus: 25 x 13 = (the answer is 325) Both 2.5 and 1.3 have 1 decimal places, so 1 + 1 = 2 (decimal places) Counting 2 places, right to left, places the decimal point here: 3.25 Search Google for division of decimals - there are plenty of how to examples and help on the internet!

Two of them.

0.235 * 0.6891 = 0.1619385 What's to estimate? The total decimal places in the multiplicands is the total in the answer.
Two places.
Multiplying by 100 is easier. Just move the decimal point two places to the right.
STEP 1:Take out the points and multiply as normal. STEP 2:After multiplying,count the numbers that are after the decimal points. STEP 3:Then look at your answer and put in your decimal places from the right to the left.
