Multiplies two specified Decimal values.

public:
 static System::Decimal operator *(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2);

public:
 static System::Decimal operator *(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2) = System::Numerics::IMultiplyOperators<System::Decimal, System::Decimal, System::Decimal>::op_Multiply;

public static decimal operator * (decimal d1, decimal d2);

static member ( * ) : decimal * decimal -> decimal

Public Shared Operator * (d1 As Decimal, d2 As Decimal) As Decimal

Parameters

d1: Decimal

The first value to multiply.

d2: Decimal

The second value to multiply.

Returns

Decimal

The result of multiplying d1 by d2.

Implements

Multiply(TSelf, TOther)

Exceptions

OverflowException

The return value is less than Decimal.MinValue or greater than Decimal.MaxValue.

Remarks

The Multiply method defines the operation of the multiplication operator for Decimal values. It enables code such as the following:

using System;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Decimal number1 = 16.8m;
      Decimal number2 = 4.1m;
      Decimal number3 = number1 * number2;
      Console.WriteLine("{0:N2} x {1:N2} = {2:N2}",
                        number1, number2, number3);
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//        16.80 x 4.10 = 68.88

let number1 = 16.8m
let number2 = 4.1m
let number3 = number1 * number2
printfn $"{number1:N2} x {number2:N2} = {number3:N2}"

// The example displays the following output:
//        16.80 x 4.10 = 68.88

Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim number1 As Decimal = 16.8d 
      Dim number2 As Decimal = 4.1d 
      Dim number3 As Decimal = number1 * number2
      Console.WriteLine("{0:N2} x {1:N2} = {2:N2}", 
                        number1, number2, number3)
   End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
'       16.80 x 4.10 = 68.88

If the language you're using doesn't support custom operators, call the Multiply method instead.

The equivalent method for this operator is Decimal.Multiply(Decimal, Decimal)
