When multiplying decimals, say, 0.2 0.2 0.2 and 1.25 1.25 1.25, we can begin by forgetting the dots. That means that to find 0.2 × 1.25 0.2 \times 1.25 0.2 × 1.25, we start by finding 2 × 125 2 \times 125 2 × 125, which is 250 250 250. Then we count how many digits to the right of the dots we had in total in the numbers we started with (in this case, it's three: one in 0.2 0.2 0.2 and two in 1.25 1.25 1.25). We then write the dot that many digits from the right in what we obtained. For us, this translates to putting the dot to the left of 2 2 2, which gives 0.250 = 0.25 0.250 = 0.25 0.250 = 0.25 (we write 0 0 0 if we have no number in front of the dot). Proper fraction button is used to change a number of the form of 9/5 to the form of 1 4/5. A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (top number) is less than the denominator (bottom number). Find the product of multiplicand and most significant digit (MSD) of 3-digit multiplier, and write down the product under the earlier product but the One’s place value of product should start from the Hundred’s place value of multiplicand.

Proper fraction button and Improper fraction button work as pair. When you choose the one the other is switched off. Find the product of multiplicand and 2nd least significant digit of 3-digit multiplier, and write down the product under the earlier product but the One’s place value of product should start from the Ten’s place value of multiplicand.

Arrange the 4-digit multiplicand and 3-digit multiplier for long multiplication method, multiply the multiplicand by Least Significant Digit (LSD) of multiplier and the product underneath to the line in the way that the Ones’s place value of multiplicand and One’s place value of product of LSD of multiplier and whole multiplicand should be vertically aligned in a straight line. To find the resulting product, find the sum of 3 individual product of multiplier and multiplicand.
