              Step 2:  Multiply  the  figures  by  the  given  number  just  like we                Remember
                        multiply any ordinary numbers.                                            When we multiply
              Step 3:  In the  product, put  a point after the  second digit  from                an amount by any

                        the right.                                                                number we place the
                                                                                                  point in the product
              example 1: Multiply the following.                                                  after two places
                    (a)  `245.30 by 8.                               (b)  `348.25 by 12.          from the right.
              Solution:

                   (a)     ` 2 4 5 . 3 0                            (b)     `     3 4 8 . 2 5

                         ×                 8                             ×                  1 2
                           1 9 6 2 . 4 0                                    `     6 9 6     5 0
                                                                         + ` 3 4 8 2        5 0

                                                                            ` 4 1 7 9 . 0 0

                  Hence, `245.30 × 8 = `1962.40                      Hence, `348.25 × 12 = `4179.00
              example 2: The cost of a colour box is `55.75. Find the cost of 6 such colour boxes.
              Solution:  The cost of one colour box = `55.75
                            Number of colour boxes required = 6                                        ` 5 5 . 7 5
                            So, the cost of 6 colour boxes  = `55.75 × 6                            ×               6

                                                                                   =     `334.50       3 3 4 . 5 0

              diviSion of money


              When  we  are  given the value of  more  number  of  items and  we  need to  find  the
              value of a single item, we do the operation of division.
              We follow these steps to divide an amount by a number.
              Step 1: Write the given amount into figures in place of dividend.

              Step 2:  Divide it by the given number taking the amount as an ordinary number.
              Step 3: In the quotient, put a point after two digits from the right.
              example 1: Divide the following:

                    (a)  `48.65 by 7.                                (b)  `213.50 by 14
              Solution:
                    (a)   7 48.65   6.95                             (b)  14 213.50     15.25

                            42                                               14
                             66                                                73
                             63                                                70
                               35                                                35
                                                                                 28
                               35                                                 70
                                0                                                 70
                                                                                    0

              Hence, `48.65 ÷ 7 = `6.95                         Hence, `213.50 ÷ 14 = `15.25
