How to Multiply Decimals

Just follow these steps:

  • Multiply normally, ignoring the decimal points.
  • Then put the decimal point in the answer - it will have as many decimal places as the two original numbers combined.

In other words, just count up how many numbers are after the decimal point in bothnumbers you are multiplying, then the answer should have that many numbers after its decimal point.
