Final answer:

The number 0.003 satisfies the condition in the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number in which the three to the right of the decimal point is 1000 times smaller than the 3 to the left of the decimal point, we can compare the digits to the left and right of the decimal point. The number 0.003 has a 3 to the left and a 3 to the right of the decimal point. In this case, 3 divided by 0.003 is equal to 1000, satisfying the condition given in the question. Therefore, the correct answer is option B) 0.003.
