             Step 1 : Mul ti ply the two dec i mals with out the
             dec i mal point just-like whole num bers.            To multiply a decimal number with 10, 100,
                                                                  1000, 10000 etc.    count the number of zeroes
             Step 2 : Mark the dec i mal point in the prod uct
                                                                  following 1 in the multiplier and shift the

                                                                  decimal point of the multiplicand towards
             places in the prod uct is equal to the sum of the    right for the places equal to the above count.
             dec i mal places in the given dec i mals.
                                                                  For ex am ple : 41827 100.  ´  =  41827
