MATH
We're learning how to multiply decimals, and it's quite easy if you follow these steps.

1. Multiply the numbers just as if they were whole numbers.  Line up the numbers on the right - do not align the decimal points.

2. Starting on the right, multiply each digit in the top number by each digit in the bottom number, just as with whole numbers.

3. Add up how many decimal places IN ALL
 
4. Start at the right and jump to the left the number of decimal places. Not enough numbers? Add zeros.
 
Complete the practice sheet handed out in class.
