Answer 1

Hint: Convert the given word statement in the form of the mathematical process and then simplify the expression for the resultant required value. Since the number to be multiplied is 100 we just move the decimal point two places to the right.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Given statement: $ 543.1187 $ and $ 100 $
Convert the above expression in the form of mathematical expression: $ 543.1187 \times 100 $
An ordinary number is the expanded version of the standard form of the number. Here we will divide the number with the times of power given.
 $ = 543.1187 \times 100 $
Move two digits and place the decimal point since we have hundreds in multiple.
 $ = 54311.87 $
This is the required solution.
So, the correct answer is “54311.87”.

Note: Think of the given power as being the positive.
Write as many zeros, including one before the decimal and then write down the given number. In case of having positive power to ten, simply write zeros after the number. If number two is given to the power ten, then write two zeros after the number.
