Question

when you multiply a number by 10, 100, 1,000 and so forth, do you move the decimal point to the left or to the right as many places as there are zeroes in the multiplier? select one of two to the right to the left remaining attempts: 1

Explanation:

When multiplying a number by powers of 10 (like 10, 100, 1000), each zero in the multiplier represents a factor of 10. For example, multiplying by 10 (which has 1 zero) moves the decimal point 1 place to the right (e.g., 5.6 × 10 = 56). Multiplying by 100 (2 zeros) moves it 2 places right (5.6 × 100 = 560). Moving left is for division by powers of 10. So the correct direction is to the right.

Answer:

To the right
