VII. Translate into Russian:

Decimals are fractions which always have a denominator of 10 or some power of 10, such as 100, 1000, etc. The denominator is usually not written down; but a dot or point called the "decimal point" is placed to the right of the digit in the numerator, which is distant from the extreme left of these digits by the number of zeroes in the denominator.

In addition or subtraction of decimals, the decimal points must be placed in a straight one under the other.

In multiplication of decimals, point off as many places in the product as there are decimal places in the multiplier and the multiplicand.

VIII. Translate into English:

При сложении десятичных дробей надо соблюдать следующий порядок: дроби записывают одну под другой так, чтобы во всех слагаемых одинаковые разряды находились друг под другом и все запятые стояли в одном и том же вертикальном столбце; справа от десятичных знаков некоторых слагаемых приписывают такое число нулей, чтобы все слагаемые после запятой имели одинаковое число цифр.
