Multiplies it by an integral power of ten - positive if the decimal point is moved to the right and negative if moved to the left.
The magnitude or value of the number.
Number to a multiple by a positive power of 10.
say carry the decimal point, it sounds more sophisticated.
To divide by a decimal, make the divisor a whole number by moving the decimal point to the right; the dividend must also be changed by moving its decimal point the same number of digits to the right. So to divide 0.5 by 0.57, make the divisor 0.57 into 57 by moving the decimal point two digits to the right, then also move the decimal point of the dividend (0.5) two places to the right to give 50. Thus: 0.5 / 0.57 = 50 / 57 ~= 0.88

The magnitude or value of the number.
Move the decimal point one place to the right. If the decimal point is already at the end of the number, add a 0 to the extreme right before moving the decimal point.
Number to a multiple by a positive power of 10.

A very deeply indented heading in a Microsoft Word document. Mathematically, it's meaningless; you can't have more than one decimal point in a number.
It is a number with a decimal point. It is not necessarily a decimal number because 24 (no decimal pont) is a decimal number.It is a number with a decimal point.

In order to find one percent of a number, simply move the number's decimal point two places to the left.
6.02 * 100 = 602. You move the decimal point to the right by the number of zeroes after the 1. So if you multiply it by 100, the decimal moves to the right by 2 spaces.

Moving a decimal point to the right is the same as multiplying a number by a power of ten. As long as both numbers are multiplied by the same amount, they will retain their same relationship.
