To write : steps taken to find the product of  two decimals

Solution:

Consider two numbers 15.213 × 34.6

First multiply the numbers without using decimals

15213 × 346 = 5263698

Then find sum of decimal places in both the numbers.

Number of decimal places in 15.213 = 3

Number of decimal places in 34.6 = 1

Total number of decimal places in both the numbers  = 3 + 1 = 4

Shift decimal four places to the left. So, number becomes 526.3698
