how to multiple 2.5
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the numbers just as if they were whole numbers.
Line up the numbers on the right - do not align the decimal points.
Starting on the right, multiply each digit in the top number by each digit in the bottom number, just as with whole numbers.
Add the products.
Place the decimal point in the answer by starting at the right and moving a number of places equal to the sum of the decimal places in both numbers multiplied.
Answer:
2.Evaluate 2.5 x 0.8
Step 1. Forget the decimal points and multiply the numbers together.
25 x 8 = 200
Step 2. Add the total number of decimal places after the decimal point in both numbers.
2.5 1 decimal place
0.8 1 decimal place
Altogether there are 2 decimal places.
Step 3. Place the decimal point in the answer so that there are two decimal places after the
point.
2.5 x 0.8 = 2.00
= 2
