Multiply by ten to move the decimal one place to the right. Multiply by 100 to move two places to the right. Divide by ten to move it one place to the left.
To move the decimal you must move the decimal in the divisor all the way to the right to make it a whole number. Then in the dividend, you move that decimal to the right the same amount of spaces you did in the divisor.
The answer depends on why you move the decimal point to the right. In the context of scientific notation, you increase the exponent by the number of place that the decimal place is moved.
