Step-by-step explanation:
Sorry for the late response, but
Something I would recommend to start multiplying decimals is to multiply the number as if they were whole numbers first. For example;
Transform them like this:
1.4 14
x 1.7 x 17
Multiply it:
14
x 17= 238
Once you do this, move the decimal point to the left once for every number behind the original multiplication:
1.4
x 1.7= 2.83
If the multiplation would have:
0.14
x 1.7= 0.283
or
14
x 1.7= 28.3
I hoped this helped and if you want more help, just reply to this.
