Answer:
11.88... below is the explanation,... ;->
Step-by-step explanation:
1.35 * 8.8 = 11.88
The fastest and simplest way to remember how to multiply decimals is in the following:
#1: Take away the decimal points (1.35 becomes 135 and 8.8 becomes 88).
#2: Multiply the numbers as whole numbers (135 * 88 = 11880).
#3: Look at the original decimals you were trying to multiply and see how many numbers where on the RIGHT side of the decimal point. In the decimal 1.35 there are 2 numbers to the RIGHT side of the decimal point (1.35 (the 3 and the 5)). In the decimal 8.8 there is 1 number to the RIGHT of the decimal point (8.8 (the 8))
#4: You have 3 numbers between both of your decimals that are on the RIGHT of the decimal point (the 3 and the 5, and then the 8) so the final step is take the number 11880 (currently the decimal point is at 11880.0) and move it 3 spaces to the LEFT of the decimal point (one 1188.0) (two 118.80) (three 11.880) and that is your final answer,...
