Step 1: Set up your problem
Remember, with decimals, we pretend as if the decimals are not there. We do not line up numbers by their decimal point.

25.660×8.342–––––––––

Step 2: Multiply like normal

Step 3: Put the decimal place in the right location
Since there are a total of 5 numbers to the right of the two decimal points in the problem, there will be 5 numbers that are behind the decimal in the product. Therefore, the decimal point goes between the 4 and the 0.

214.05572

25.66×8.342  is equal to 214.05572

Step 4: Round to the nearest hundredth.

First, we determine which digit is in the hundredths place. This digit will be 2 places to the right of the decimal point.
