Multiply simple decimal values

Teaching Transcript

🎙️

Let's multiply these decimal numbers

We'll start by multiplying the base numbers. 4 times 8 gives us 32

Now we need to count the decimal places. 0.04 is 2 decimal places smaller than 4. 0.8 is one decimal place smaller than 8.

We can move the decimal in 32 by both of these amounts, so we end up with 0.032 as our answer.

This math skill teaches how to multiply decimal numbers. The process involves multiplying the numbers as if they were whole numbers and then adjusting the decimal place in the product based on the decimal places in the original numbers.
