What is Decimal Multiplication?

Decimal multiplication involves multiplying two decimal numbers. The formula simplifies the process by converting the decimals into integers, performing the multiplication, and then adjusting the result by dividing by 10000.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Convert decimals to integers and perform multiplication:

\[ ab = 12, \quad cd = 34 \]

\[ ab \times cd = 12 \times 34 = 408 \]

Step 2: Adjust the result by dividing by 10000:

\[ X = \frac{408}{10000} = 0.0408 \]

The result is 0.0408.
