That's not a problem, I'll teach you how! Before we start, I need to know what numbers we're dealing with. Each of your apples cost $0.86 and you have 7 of them, so the math problem is 0.86x7.
One day, at the grocery store, a man purchased 7 apples for a pie. The cash register wasn't working that day, so the employees were asking the customer to find the price of the items themselves. The bad part was that the man didn't know how to multiply decimals.
I'm sorry sir, but our cash registers aren't working today, you'll have to find the price on your own.
But I never learned how to multiply decimals!
All you have to do now is multiply like you would in a normal multiplication problem
CORRECT!
0.86x 7602
so I would multiply the 6 and the 7 to get 42, then carry the 4 to the tenths place. And multiply the 7 and the 8 to get 56, then add 4 to get 60, and move the 6 to the ones place. And then I would multiply 7 and 0, get 0, and then and 6 for my answer to be 602.
Next, look at the decimal, see how many numbers are behind the decimal point, there are 2. Now, go to your answer and, starting from the ones place, move the decimal point that many places to the left. You should end up with 6.02
0.86x 7602
So your total cost for 7 apples is $6.02!
I LEFT MY WALLET!
