Question

How many decimal places are in the product of a number with decimal places to the hundredths multiplied by a number with decimal places to the tenths?A 2, B 3, C 4, D 5

Answer 1

We have the product of two numbers:

• A with decimal places to the hundredths,

,

• B with decimal places to the tenths.

If we take a number A with two decimal places, and then we multiply it by a number B with one decimal place, we will get a number C with three decimal places.

For example, if we take A = 0.25 and B = 0.1, we get C = A * B = 0.25 * 0.1 = 0.025.

B. 3
