2. Review
Before we start our lesson for today, let
us recall your past lesson. What did we
learn yesterday? Kenneth? We studied about addition and
subtraction of decimals.
Teacher.
Very good.
How do you add and subtract numbers? To add or subtract decimal numbers
arrange the digits in columns and align
You’re right! the decimal points.
Add these decimal numbers: 2.53 + 4.56
Yes, Janelle.
Teacher, 7.09.
Correct.

Today, we are going to multiply decimal

numbers.
3. Motivation
Have you wondered, where we could (Students are given time to think)
apply the principles of multiplying
decimal numbers?

I want you to talk to your neighbor and

share your ideas.

Arian, what did you tell your neighbor? Teacher, I told Jerry that I can use
decimal numbers when I buy at the store,
when I travel, and budget my money.
You are correct Adrian.

Is there anyone else who would like to (Mary, raises her hand)
share?
Yes, Mary When we do cooking, teacher. Some
recipes have numbers with decimals in
them.
You are right, Mary. When we cook, we
look at recipes and sometimes the
numbers involved decimals.

Thank you for sharing your ideas.

Now let’s look at this problem on the

board.

In a local market, one apple costs P20.25. (let the pupils think and solve the
How much will 4 dozen apples cost? problem)

B. Developmental Activities

1. Presentation

1. What is being asked? Teacher!

Yes, Allan. How much will 4 dozens of apples cost?

Very good!
2. What are given? 20.25 costs of one apple and 4 dozens of
Yes, Raiza. apple.

Very good!

3. What operation is needed to solve the Multiplication

problem?

4. What is the number sentence? P20.25 x 48=N

Yes, Allin.
Correct!

5. What is the solution to the problem? 20.25

Yes, Jun Mark. X 48
16200
8100
972.00
Answer: Four dozens of apples will cost
P972.00.
Correct!

Now let us learn the rules or principles of

multiplying decimal numbers.

►Multiplying a decimal by a whole

number will result in a product with the
same number of decimal places as the
given decimal.
(The pupils will cooperate and do as
Examples: 4 x 1.2= 4.8 instructed)

Let us practice in pairs. (The pupils solve by pairs)

42.25x 12=

Who has the answer? Dexie and Lian? 42.25 x 12 = 507.00

Would you agree? Or disagree? Show me

a thumbs up if you agree and a thumbs
down when you disagree (Pupils showing their thumbs up)

Now let us take another rule.

►To multiply decimals: (let the pupils think and solve the
1. Ignore the decimal points and multiply problem)
as if they are whole numbers.
2. Place the decimal point in the product
based on the total number of decimal
places in the factors.

Examples: 0.86 x 0.05= 0.0430

Who would like to try this problem on the
board? 12.19 x 6.3= Teacher!

Yes, John 12.19 x 6.3=76.797

That is correct. Thank you.

I want you to work in pairs again and

solve this word problem.

Problem Solving Example:

How many 50 centavos are there in P (Pupils busy solving the problem)
25.50?

Who has the answer? Teacher! The answer is whole number 1,

275.
That is true, it is a whole number.
Sometimes we multiply decimal numbers
but the answer could be a whole number.

Let us move on to the next rule.

► To multiply a decimal by 10,100, or
1000, 1. count the number of zeros in
10,100,1000. 2. Move the decimal point
to the right based on the number of zeros.
Examples:
5.17 x 10 = 51.7
5.17 x 100 = 517
5.17 x 1000 = 5170
Now, it is your turn.

0.214x10=
0.214x100= (The pupils work by pair)
0.214x1000=

► To multiply a decimal by 0.1, 0.01,

0.001: 1. Count the number of decimal
places in the tenth, hundredth, and
thousandth. 2. Move the decimal point to
the left based on the number of zeros.
Examples: 5.17 x 0.1 = 0.517
5.17 x 0.01= 0.0517
5.17 x 0.001 =0.005170
Do you think you can solve the problem
mentally? Yes, Teacher!

0.214x0.1= 0.214x0.1=0.0214
0.214x0.01= 0.214x0.01=0.00214
0.214x0.001= 0.214x0.001=0.000214

Excellent!

2. Application (Group Activity) (let the children suggest standards. Then

(Divide the class into 5 groups.) post a chart with written standards then
Group A- Slow Learner let the children read it.)
Group B-Average Learner
Group C- Fast Learner Standards to be followed in Group
Now, class, I will group you into 5. We
will have a group activity. But first, what Activity
should we do if we will have a group • Read and follow the directions
activity? What are the standards for doing carefully.
group activity? • Work quietly.
• Cooperate with the group.
(Each group will make 3 flash cards with • Maintain cleanliness and orderliness in
answers at the back in each of the your working area.
following: multiplying decimal by a
whole number, multiplying decimal by (Each member should cooperate with the
decimal, and multiplying by powers of group)
10. In 10 minutes, they will have to
report.) (Let the group leader read their work
(Checking the work of each group) before the class.)

What could have happened if we did not

follow those rules of multiplying
decimals? Do you think we would come
up with the right answers? No, teacher.

Our lives are made up of different rules

and if we faithfully follow those rules, we
definitely will arrive at the right
conclusion.

Thank you for cooperating in our class Thank you and bye Teacher.
