Review Question Which of the following decimal numbers are NOT written correctly for nursing charting? A.1.2 B..12 C.12.0 D.0.012
3
Calculators!! Bring a calculator to class You may not use cell phones during tests You may not borrow a calculator from another student until they have turned in their test
4
Multiplication of Decimals – Without a calculator The decimal point in the product of decimal fractions is placed the same number of places to the left in the product, as the total number after the decimal points in the fractions multiplied. – 0.42 x 0.6 = 0.42 (2 places to the left) x 0.6 (1 place to the left) 252 (count 3 places to left) .252 0.252
5
Multiplication of Decimals – with a calculator – 0.42 x 0.6 = Enter the number 0.42 Press the multiplication function (x) Enter the number 0.6 Press the equal function (=) Write down the answer
6
Multiplication of Decimals – Without a calculator If the product contains insufficient numbers for correct placement of the decimal point, add as many zeros as necessary to the left of the product to correct this – 1.3 x 0.07 1.3 (1 place to the left) x 0.07 (2 places to the left) 91 (count 3 places to the left) .091 0.091
7
Multiplication of Decimals – With a calculator – 1.3 x 0.07 Enter 1.3 Press the (x) button Enter 0.07 Press the (=) button Write down the answer
8
Multiplication of Decimals Example – 1.08 x 0.05 1.08 (count 2 places) x 0.05 (count 2 places) 540 (count 4 places) .0540 0.0540 (add a zero in front) 0.054 (drop extra zero)
9
Multiplication of Decimals Example – 1.08 x 0.05 – Enter 1.08 – Enter x – Enter 0.05 – Press = – Write down the answer

Look for which number has the must numbers to the right of the decimal – start there. Count how many places you have to move the decimal to the right before it is “gone” Move the decimal the same number of places to the other number. What ever you do the numerator you must do to the denominator

Expressing to the nearest tenth 1234.567 – 5 is in the tenth place – 6 is in the hundredth place – 7 is in the thousandth place –. Decimal point – 4 is in the ones place – 3 is in the tens place – 2 is in the hundreds place – 1 is in the thousands place
82
Expressing to the nearest tenth To express an answer to the nearest tenth, the division is carried to hundredths (2 places after the decimal). When the number representing hundredth is 5 or larger, the number representing tenths is increased by one. – Example 1.66 – 1.7

Expressing to the nearest hundredth 1234.567 – 5 is in the tenth place – 6 is in the hundredth place – 7 is in the thousandth place –. Decimal point – 4 is in the ones place – 3 is in the tens place – 2 is in the hundreds place – 1 is in the thousands place
93
Expressing to the nearest hundredth To express an answer to the nearest hundredth, the division is carried to the thousandths (3 places after the decimal point). When the number representing the thousandth is 5 or larger, the number representing the hundredths is increased by one. – Example 0.893 – 0.89

Mrs. Keele, I want to be a nurse, not a mathematician! Why do I have to learn this? What does this have to do with nursing?
101
You are to administer 3 tablets with a dosage strength of 0.04 mg each. What total dosage are you giving? – 3 tablets x 0.04 mg = 3 (0 places to the left) x 0.04 mg (2 places to the left) 12 mg (2 to the left) .12 mg 0.12 mg – 3 tablets x 0.04 mg = 0.12 mg
102
Tablets are labeled 0.2 mg and you are to give 3 ½ (3.5) tablets. What total dosage is this? – 3.5 tablets x 0.2 mg = 3.5 (1 place) x 0.2 mg(1 place) 70 mg (2 places) .7 mg 0.7 mg – 3.5 tablets x 0.2 mg = 0.7 mg
103
You gave 2.5 tablets labeled 0.4 mg each, and the dosage ordered was 1.2 mg. Was this the correct dosage? 2.5 tablets x 0.4 mg = 2.5 (1 place) x 0.4 mg (1 place) 100 (2 places) 1.00 mg 1 mg 2.5 tablets x 0.4 mg = 1 mg Answer the question – – No this was too little of the medication!
