Happy 3rd week of summer!

Something to think about... (this is not true today, but it used to be!)

Remember the rules for moving the decimal when multiplying and dividing by 10, 100, 1000. When dividing the decimal moves to the left, multiplying to the right. Think logically, when you multiply the number should get larger and when you divide it should get smaller. 
10 one place
100 two places
1000 three places
10 000 four places
100 000 five places
1 000 000 six places
Hint: Count the number of zeros.
