Question

write a problem that includes multiplying decimals. explain how you know where to place the decimal in the prouduct

Answer 1

3.6 x 3.4.

6 times 4 is 24 so carry the 2. next 4 times 3 is 12 then add the so 14.

Next you do the left side; 3 times 3 is 9.. then 3 times 6 is equals 18.

Now u should have 144 on top and 189 you add those; which equals 333. In each number (3.6 and 3.4); the decimal moved over once so 1 times 2 = 2

so move the decimal over twice and the answer would be 3.33
