Strategies
This exercise is easy to get accuracy badges because except for the decimal they are just multiplication problems. The speed badges are also easy because almost all the problems have few decimal places.
 * 1) A calculator might actually slow you down on these problems.
 * 2) All problems are multiplying a whole number by a decimal and the vast majority have only one number after the decimal place.
 * 3) If you multiply by a number with one spot after the decimal, multiply the numbers (as if there were no decimal) and then move the decimal one spot left.
 * 4) There are two problems where the decimal number has more than one spot after the decimal point, but these are 0.25 and 0.75 which are easy to analyze as quarters or three-quarters.
