Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To multiply 0.0013 by 7.4, you multiply 13 by 74 and then place the decimal point in the product so that the total number of decimal places in the product is the sum of the decimal places in the factors. 13 * 74 = 962. Since there are four decimal places in total in the factors (four in 0.0013 and one in 7.4), the product is 0.00962.
