Multiplication - Decimal by Power of Ten (Negative) (Level 4)

This math topic focuses on multiplying decimals by powers of ten, specifically with negative exponents, helping strengthen skills in decimal multiplication. The exercises involve computing the product of a decimal and a very small decimal multiplier (equivalent to negative powers of ten, such as \(0.001\)). Students are presented with problems and a set of multiple-choice answers, fostering precision and reinforcing the understanding of how multiplication by powers of ten affects the placement of the decimal point. This skill is crucial for logically scaling numbers in both academic settings and everyday contexts.
