title: How to Multiply Decimals in Python
body: <p>I was writing a pounds to dollars converter program. I encountered some problems multiplying the two numbers.</p>
  
  <pre><code>pounds = input('Number of Pounds: ')
  convert = pounds * .56
  print('Your amount of British pounds in US dollars is: $', convert)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone tell me the code to correct this program?</p>
