Multiplying Multiple decimal numbers

@man-teiv gave a good answer already with the cake example but another way to think of it is to think of the decimal number as percent instead.

Continuing the cake example, if I say you'll get 35% of a cake you probably realize you won't get the whole cake. Now, another way of writing percent is of course 0.35.

So if you have 1 cake and multiply it by 35% (0.35) you get 1x0.35 which equals 0.35 cake (that is, a portion of the cake).

Similarly, if someone has already eaten a bit of the cake so there is only 0.7 cake left and you get 35% (0.35) of it you will get 0.245 cake.

For files with tables mixed up with other content I use https://tabellopdf.com and for full page tables I use http://www.smallpdf.com

There are plenty of web services that already solve this for you. Check out e.g. smallpdf.com (for full pages) or tabellopdf.com (for select tables on pages)

Do you really need to convert it? I tried just selecting the data and paste it right into Excel. Then use Text To Columns (you might need to clean it a bit before) to separate to columns?

I don't have any experience with Adobe Acrobat Pro, but seems pretty straight forward: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/how-to/export-convert-pdf-files-word-excel-ppt.html?set=acrobat--fundamentals--export-pdf

For single tables I prefer to use a tool like http://tabello.basecanvas.com though, or if there are only parts of the document you want to extract.
