0.2 x 24 = 4.8

The easiest way to do this is to multiply 24 by 2 = 48

We then note that one of the multiples is to one decimal place, so we insert a decimal point to one decimal place. 48 becomes 4.8 . The Answer!!!!

As an extension of this exercise.

Try 0.2 x 2.4 = 0.48

Again we multiply 2 x 24 = 48 as before.

We then note that both multiples are each to ONE decimal place, making for a total of TWO decimal places in the multiples. So the answer is written with TWO decimal places.

So 48 becomes 0.48 The Answer!!!!!"
