Answer:

2 decimal places

Explanation:

When you multiply two decimals, the largest possible number of decimal places in the product is the sum of the number of the decimal places of the factors. Here, the product has 2 decimal places. One factor is an integer, so it has no decimal places. The other factor must have at least 2 decimal places.
