Lesson 3.2 and 3.4 Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Wednesday, Oct 9 Lesson 3.2 and 3.4 Multiplying Decimals by Decimals

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Objective: To understand how to estimate and multiply decimals by decimals.

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals At the end of this lesson you should be able to answer the following questions. How do you determine which place value to use when multiplying decimals by decimals? Why is estimating not as helpful when multiplying very small numbers?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals To multiply decimals, multiply as normal and then place the decimal point.

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. First round the numbers to the nearest whole number to get an estimate. What does 8.7 round to? Digits from 0 to 4 round down and digits from 5-9 round up.

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. First round the numbers to the nearest whole number to get an estimate. What does 8.7 round to? 9 What does 2.8 round to?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. First round the numbers to the nearest whole number to get an estimate. What does 8.7 round to? 9 What does 2.8 round to? 3

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. First round the numbers to the nearest whole number to get an estimate. 9 x 3 = 27, so 8.7 x 2.8 ≈ 27

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. To multiply decimals. Step 1 – Stack the numbers with the number with the most digits on top. 8.7 x 2.8 (Since both numbers have 2 digits, either could be on top)

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. To multiply decimals. Step 2 – Multiply the digits. 8.7 x 2.8 696 Don’t forget to add the zero. +1740 2436

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. To multiply decimals. Step 3 – Determine the number of decimal places in the factors to locate the decimal place in the product. 8.7 1 decimal place x 2.8 + 1 decimal place 696 +1740 24.36 2 decimal places

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. 8.7 x 2.8 696 +1740 24.36 Is this a reasonable answer?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 8.7 and 2.8. Is this a reasonable answer? 24.35 ≈ 27

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of .98 and 7.3 Estimate?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of .98 and 7.3 Estimate? 1 x 7 = 7, so .98 x 7.3 ≈ 7 Next?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of .98 and 7.3 .98 x 7.3 Next?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of .98 and 7.3 .98 x 7.3 294 Don’t forget to add a zero +6860 7154 Next?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of .98 and 7.3 .98 2 decimal places x 7.3 +1 decimal place 294 +6860 7.154 3 decimal places Is this a reasonable answer?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of .98 and 7.3 .98 2 decimal places x 7.3 +1 decimal place 294 +6860 7.154 3 decimal places Is this a reasonable answer? 7.154 ≈ 7

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 3.6 and 0.05. Estimate?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 3.6 and 0.05. 4 x 0 = 0, so 3.6 x 0.05 ≈ 0

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 3.6 and 0.05. 4 x 0 = 4, so 3.6 x 0.05 ≈ 0 Actual product?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 3.6 and 0.05 0.05 2 decimal places x 3.6 +1 decimal place 0030 + 0015 0.045 3 decimal places Is this a reasonable answer?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 3.6 and 0.05 0.05 2 decimal places x 3.6 +1 decimal place 030 +0150 0.180 3 decimal places Is this a reasonable answer? 0.180 ≈ 0

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 0.112 and 7.2 Estimate?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 0.112 and 7.2 Estimate? 0 x 7 = 0, so 0.112 x 7.2 ≈ 0 Actual product?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 0.112 and 7.2 0.112 3 decimal places x 7.2 +1 decimal place 0224 +07840 .8064 4 decimal places Is this a reasonable answer?

Multiplying Decimals by Decimals Find the product of 0.112 and 7.2 0.112 3 decimal places x 7.2 +1 decimal place 0224 +07840 .8064 4 decimal places Is this a reasonable answer? 0.8064 ≈ 0
