Question

When converting from smaller to larger units the decimal point travels right *

Answer 1

False, it travels left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we can answer this with an example. If we have 200 g and we want that value in a larger unit, for instance, kilogram, the following conversion is performed since 1 kg equals 1000 g:

`200g*(1kg)/(1000kg)=0.200g`

Whereas we needed to move the decimal point from right to left, which means that it travels left, that is why the statement is false.

Best regards.
