	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
			$0$

Step 1.2

Multiply $0$ by $2$ . Place the result in the next column in the result line. There is one result line for each digit in $10$ .


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
		$0$	$0$

Step 1.3

Multiply $0$ by $2$ . Place the result in the next column in the result line. There is one result line for each digit in $10$ .


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$

Step 1.4

	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$
$2$	$2$	$8$

Step 1.7

Add the numbers in each column. In this case, add $0 + 0$ , then place the $0$ in the result line.


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$
$2$	$2$	$8$
			$0$

Step 1.8

Add the numbers in each column. In this case, add $0 + 8$ , then place the $8$ in the result line.


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$
$2$	$2$	$8$
		$8$	$0$

Step 1.9

Add the numbers in each column. In this case, add $0 + 2$ , then place the $2$ in the result line.


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$
$2$	$2$	$8$
	$2$	$8$	$0$

Step 1.10

Add the numbers in each column. In this case, add $0 + 2$ , then place the $2$ in the result line.


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$
$2$	$2$	$8$
$2$	$2$	$8$	$0$


	$2$	. $2$	$8$
$⨯$		$1$	$0$
	$0$	$0$	$0$
$2$	$2$	$8$
$2$	$2$	$8$	$0$

Step 2

To find the number of decimal places needed in the answer, add the number of decimal places in the multiplier and multiplicand. In this case, there is a total of $2$ , so the answer must have $2$ decimal places as well.
