A part of a given number implies a selected part of a given number which can be expressed as a fraction of the number. Example, the half of any number is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

The product of a part and another part can be expressed as;

$\frac{1}{3}$ x $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{2}{9}$

or,

$\frac{1}{2}$ x $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$

or,

$\frac{1}{2}$ x $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{2}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$

The three examples shows: a part x a part.

Therefore, it would be observed that multiplying decimals less than one is the same as finding a part of a part.
