B) 8.06 * 10^7

C) 8.06 * 10^8

D) 8.06 * 10^10

Answer 1

question is how many decimal points was the dot moved.
806,000,000 = 806,000,000.00

the dot is no longer in front of
000,000

6 decimals, also, another 2 deicmals are now Behind the dot,
rather than in front.

in total, we moved the dot by 6+2 = 8 decimal positions

Answer 2

that means the number was reduced 8 decimals or 100 000 000 in magnitude
to even that out, multiply by a "10" that will increase 8.06 by 8 decimals.
