Decimal Multiplication Worksheets 5th Grade - Free Printable

Let's solve each of these decimal multiplication problems step by step.

We are multiplying decimals by powers of 10 (10, 100, or 1000). When you multiply a decimal by a power of 10, you move the decimal point to the right by the number of zeros in the power of 10:

- ×10 → move decimal point 1 place to the right
- ×100 → move decimal point 2 places to the right
- ×1000 → move decimal point 3 places to the right
