Answer 1

Answer: C) Move it 3 places to the left

Step-by-step explanation:

We're dividing the number
`34.62` by
`10^3`, which is the same as dividing by 1000.

The exponent 3 tells us how many spots to move the decimal point. We move to the left because the number gets smaller. If we multiplied by
`10^3`, then we'd move the decimal point 3 spots to the right.

So,
`34.62 / 10^3 = 34.62 / 1000 = 0.03462`
