2. Multiplying & Dividing Decimals

3. Decimals are multiplied as if they were whole numbers. (It is not necessary to line up the decimal points.) Do you remember how to place the decimal point in your final answer? 4.5 x 7.1 = 31.95 8.789 x 4 = 35.156.08 x.09 =.0072

4. The decimal point in the answer is then found by using the following steps. STEP 1: Count the total number of digits to the right of the decimal point in each of the numbers being multiplied. STEP 2: In the answer, count from right to left the number of places found in STEP 1 AND WRITE THE DECIMAL POINT. It may be necessary to attach zeros to the left of the answer in order to correctly place the decimal point. 4.5 x 7.1 = 31.95  1 + 1 = 2 8.789 x 4 = 35.156  3 + 0 = 3.08 x.09 =.0072  2 + 2 = 4

8. Dividing terms: Quotient, Dividend, Divisor 3 )21.93. 7.31 Quotient Divisor Dividend Place a decimal point directly above the dividend’s decimal point.

9. 5 )14.2. 2.84 Example 1: Sometimes it is necessary to place zeros after the decimal point in the dividend. Why? Does attaching zeros after the decimal point change the value of the dividend? No. 5 )14.20

10. 3 )4.7000. 1.5666 Example 2: A remainder of 0 might not be obtained even though extra zeros are placed after the dividend. Round to the nearest thousandth by carrying out the division to four places and then rounding to three places.

11. .3 )27.6. 92.0 Example 3: To divide by a decimal, first convert the divisor to a whole number. Round to the nearest thousandth by carrying out the division to four places and then rounding to three places...
