Adecimal number is multiplied by 105. which statement describes the change in position of the decimal point in the decimal number as a result of the multiplication? a) the decimal point moves 4 places to the left. b) the decimal point moves 5 places to the left. c) the decimal point moves 5 places to the right. d) the decimal point moves 10 places to the right.

Consider the number 1.23456.

When we multiply it by 10, it becomes 12.3456. The decimal point has moved one place to the right.

If we multiply this number by 10, it becomes 123.456, and we see the decimal point has been moved 2 places to the right relative to where it was in the original number.

To get from 1.23456 to 123.456, we have multiplied by 10×10 = 10².

The exponent 2 in 10² tells how many times 10 is a factor in the product 10×10. It also corresponds to the number of decimal places the decimal point moves to the right when we multiply by 10².

If we were to continue, we would find

... 1.23456 × 10³ = 1234.56

... 1.23456 × 10⁴ = 12345.6

... 1.23456 × 10⁵ = 123456.   here, the decimal point has moved 5 places to the right.

The appropriate choice is ...

... C) The decimal point moves 5 places to the right.

take the top number and divide it by a the bottom number

step-by-step explanation: the declaration of the rights of man and of the citizen (french: déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen de 1789), set by france's national constituent assembly in 1789, is a human civil rights document from the french revolution.[1]

the declaration was drafted by the abbé sieyès and the marquis de lafayette, in consultation with thomas jefferson.[2] influenced by the doctrine of "natural right", the rights of man are held to be universal: valid at all times and in every place, pertaining to human nature itself. it became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law. it is included in the beginning of the constitutions of both the fourth french republic (1946) and fifth republic (1958) and is still current. inspired by the enlightenment philosophers, the declaration was a core statement of the values of the french revolution and had a major impact on the development of freedom and democracy in europe and worldwide.[3]

the 1789 declaration, together with the 1215 magna carta, the 1689 english bill of rights (1689), the 1776 united states declaration of independence, and the 1789 united states bill of rights, inspired in large part the 1948 united nations universal declaration of human rights
