To multiply decimals :
First, multiply like a whole number:
295 * 13 = 3835
Second, count the decimal places of each number:
29.5 -- 1 decimal place
1.3 ----- 1 decimal place
1 decimal place + 1 decimal place = 2 decimal places
Finally, put the same number of places behind the decimal in the product:
3835 to decimal places 38.35
Therefore, the result of 29.5 * 1.3 = 38.35
