The rule here is to stack the decimals up
\n" ); document.write( "12.8
\n" ); document.write( "03.2
\n" ); document.write( "multiply in the usual way
\n" ); document.write( "count the total number of digits to the right of all your decimal points
\n" ); document.write( "and insert the decimal point into the answer THAT many places to the left
\n" ); document.write( "of your rightmost digit
\n" ); document.write( "32 times 128 is 4096
\n" ); document.write( "so 3.2 times 12.8 is 40.96
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
