3 Example: 5.63 x 3.7 How many decimal places are in each factor? 1 4 2 5.63 two x 3.7 one 1 1 39 4 1 1 + 16 8 9 How many decimal places should be in the product? 2 8 3 1 three

4 Example: 0.53 x 2.618 2.618 has more digits (4) than 0.53 (3), so it goes on top. How many decimal places are in each factor? 3 4 1 2 2.618 three x 0.53 two 1 7 8 5 4 13 9 How many decimal places are in the product? + 00 1 3 8 7 5 4 five

5 Try This: 6.5 x 15.3 Which number should go on top? 3 1 2 1 How many decimal places are in each factor? 15.3 one x 6.5 one 1 7 6 5 + 9 1 8 How many decimal places should be in the product? 9 9 4 5 two

6 Place the decimal in the product in the correct place
7.56 x 3.8 = 28728 287.28 Which one is the correct answer? 2872.8 28.728
