How do you multiply a decimal?
For exapmple,2.4 times 3.5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1). Count the total number of decimal places AFTER the decimal points
in both numbers. In your example, there's one in the 2.4 and one in the 3.5,
for a total of two. Put that '2' in your pocket for later.

2). Now forget about the decimal points. Just write the numbers
one under the other, and multiply them as usual.

   like 24
   x 35


3). When you get the answer (like 840), THEN pull out the '2' that you have been
saving in your pocket from before.

Starting at the RIGHT side of your answer, count '2' places back from the end
and put a decimal point there.

Now you have ' 8.40 '.

That's the answer to multiplying the decimals.

Answer 2

Answer: Multiply the example as you would for two digit numbers, like 24x35=840. Then, add all the numbers behind the missing decimals. In this case it is 2 so count 2 spaces from the right and add the decimal. 2.4x3.5=8.40

In "Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata," what line is an example of a detail the author added for dramatic interest?

Answers

First of all, it is not an author, it is a composer, so this shouldn't be in english.

I reckon that Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata adds dramatic interest by adding dramatically increasing tempo and resonating parts. You will know that there is that one part where the music speeds up and it reaches a respectably high note, and it reverberates around the high A on the violin for a while. Also, I do believe that there is a key change in the middle, showing a shift in mood, which can add to the interest factor a lot.

Beethoven also adds bass notes every measure after I believe the 15th measure, so that could add some drama as well.

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I hope it helped.

PhyCS, there is a story called Beethoven's Moonlight Sonota.

You are correct, but there are to different questions; the story or the actual music?

BTW, I couldn't comment, so I just used the "add answer".
