Answer:

Explanation:

Things to remember:

1). When we divide a number having decimal by 10, 100, 1000 or any number multiple of ten, decimal point of the numerator shifts left by the number of zeros present in denominator.

Example:
(2.0)/(100)=0.02

2). When we multiply a decimal number by 10, 100, or any number number multiple of 10, decimal point of the original number shifts right by number of zeros present in multiplier.

Example: 2.0 × 100 = 200

In this question, 0.014 × 100000 = 1400.000

Therefore, product of 0.014 and 100000 is 1400 because the decimal point in 0.014 moves 5 places to the right.
