Final answer:
Divide 22,000 by 10^2 by moving the decimal point two places to the left, turning it into 220, and observe the shift in value of the digits.
Step-by-step explanation:
When dividing 22,000 by 10^2, you move the decimal point to the left two places because the power of ten (the exponent) is 2. This is equivalent to dividing the number by 100. Originally, in 22,000 the '2' in the ten thousands place is worth 20,000, but after moving the decimal point two places to the left, it shifts to the hundreds place, making it worth 200. Therefore, 22,000 divided by 10^2 is 220. This process shows how the value of each digit changes when you move the decimal point.
