Mark is wrong because the product is actually .14 and not 14.

Multiplying decimals together and then adding the decimal point will make it .14.

Multiply the 2 and 7 to get 14Count the number of decimals in the problem and put them in front of the digits in the product. Since there are two decimals and two digits it is .14 .
