well here is one way
105/ 10 * 525 /100 = (105 * 525) / 1000 = 55125/1000 = 55.125

there are lots of online sites that show how to multiply multi-digit numbers with decimal places. You just line up the decimal points, and proceed as usual. Or, forget the decimal points during the multiplication, and then make sure that the product has as many decimal places as the two numbers combined.
Note that Damon's answer is just 105*525, with 2+1=3 decimal places.
