Multiplying Decimals and Place Values

The video tutorial explains how to multiply decimals using the partial product algorithm. It begins by breaking down numbers into place values, then demonstrates multiplying each number by others, and finally adds the results to get the final answer.

What is the first step in multiplying decimals using the partial product algorithm?

• Convert decimals to fractions.

• Add the numbers together.

• Separate the numbers into place values.

• Multiply the numbers directly.

How do you express 6 and 410 in terms of place values?

• 6 + 410

• 6 + 4.10

• 60 + 410

• 6 + 0.410

What is the equivalent of 9 and 1/10 in place value terms?

• 9 + 1.01

• 9 + 0.1
