question 2
when converting from a smaller metric unit to a larger metric unit, you move the decimal point to the ______________.
right
left

Explanation:

In the metric system, since a larger unit represents a greater quantity per unit, when converting from a smaller to a larger unit, the number becomes smaller. Moving the decimal point to the left makes the number smaller. For example, converting 1000 millimeters (smaller unit) to 1 meter (larger unit), 1000.0 mm becomes 1.0 m, moving the decimal point 3 places to the left.

Answer:

B. Left
