Worksheet variations

Multiply decimals as if they were whole numbers, then place the point: the answer has as many decimal places as both factors together. To divide by a decimal, move the point in both numbers the same number of places until the divisor is whole.

FAQ

Where does the decimal point go in a product?

Count the decimal places in both factors; the product has that many. 0.6 × 0.4 has two places in total, so 6 × 4 = 24 becomes 0.24.

How do you divide by a decimal?

Multiply both numbers by the same power of 10 to make the divisor whole. 0.7 ÷ 0.2 becomes 7 ÷ 2 = 3.5; the quotient doesn't change.

Is every worksheet different?

Yes. Numbers are generated each time, and the answer key is calculated for that sheet. Swap any single question and its answer updates too.

Can I mix multiplying and dividing decimals with other skills?

Yes. In the generator, add more skills; each gets its own section on the sheet with its own instructions.

Is it free to print?

Yes. Generating and printing from the browser is free with no sign-up. PDF downloads need a free account.
