How to divide numbers by powers of ten

2 Answers

11 votes

Answer:

so when you divide by powers of ten (ten times itself some number of times, like ten, one hundred, one thousand, etc.), the decimal moves to the left. For each power of ten, you move one place to the left. So if you divided a number by one hundred (10^2 or 10*10), you would move two places to the left
