Steps for Multiplying decimals - answer1. Set up numbers as if they were whole
numbers
2. multiply the numbers
3. count the number of decimal places in the factors
4. start from the right and move the decimal the number of decimal places you counted
in step 3
5. place the decimal
Steps for Dividing Decimals - answer1. set up the problem to be an equivalent in which
the divisor is a whole number by moving the decimal in the dividend the same number
of places that you moved the decimal in the divisor
2. when doing long division place the decimal in the quotient directly above the decimal
point in the dividend
, 3. divide as if it were a whole number
Real Number - answernumber that appears on the number line as either a rational
number or an irrational number
Rational Number - answerany real number that can be written as a fraction, terminating
decimal, or repeating decimal
