@Steven Yes that's true, I only meant that in the context of the issue where 
only the multiplication is used. FWIW Fraction also would have issues with e.g. 
trigonometric functions right?

@ahmad, that's because you did Decimal(4.6) which first parse 4.6 as a float 
then call Decimal() with the result. You need to use Decimal('4.6') to avoid 
the parser reading 4.6 as a float. Have a look at the tutorial Eric Smith 
linked, the documentation of decimal and the response from Steven D'Aprano for 
more information.
