If you multiply any whole number or decimal by100allyou have to do is move the decimal point to the hundreds place am I right?
No.
When a number is multiplied by 100 the digits all shift left two columns - the ones digit goes to the hundred column, the tens digit goes to the thousands column. the tenths digit goes to the tens column, etc.
As it is difficult to show this on paper, it is often demonstrated by showing the effect on the decimal point.
When the digits are shifted two columns to the left, the digit that now occupies the ones column is the digit that was originally in the hundredTHs column, the column that was 2 to the right of the decimal point. Thus in multiplying by 100 it looks like the decimal point gets moved to after the digit in the hundredths place.
The hundreds column is the column 3 to the left of the decimal point
The hundredths column is the column 2 to the right of the decimal point.
When multiplying by 100 the decimal point gets moved two digits to the right, with zeros being inserted if there were not two digits after the decimal point in the original number.
