Well, I guess you have a choice of two operations,
whichever one is easier for you.
-- Leave the decimal point where it is, and move
each and every number one place to the left.
or
-- Leave all the numbers where they are, and move
the decimal point one place to the right.
How to remember it:
When you 'times' a number, you have to get a bigger number than you started with.
If it comes out smaller, then you moved things the wrong way.

Why is it important to ensure that an experimental sample is totally random?
To ensure that the results produced from your sample are fair and true. For example, if you had to pick 10 random numbers between 1 and 6, you could just say numbers that come into your head, but that wouldn't be random because you're choosing the numbers. A more random and fair way would be to roll a die 10 times and use those numbers, because you are in no way picking the numbers.
