How do you feel about multiplying decimals?
(ex: could you answer 1.54 x 2.37 without a calculator?)
I don't really remember how to start
I kind of remember that and feel like I could probably get it right with help
I can do that right now and am 100% confident I have the right answer

Reminders:
You do not need to line up the decimal points when you are multiplying decimals
line up the numbers, as you would if they were whole numbers, and multiply as if it were a multi-digit problem
Once you have finished, count the number of decimal places in both factors and place the decimal in that spot in your final answer
