I may not fully understand the question but the value of 7 is 7. The value of 6 is 6 and the value of 9 is 9.
How many jumps is it from the decimal point to the position to the right of the 6
The answer to that is 3 jumps. Since the move of the decimal made the number larger than it really is, it will take a negative value to put it back where it belongs.
So A) is the correct answer. It is in scientific notation and if you move the decimal back 3 place you get the number you stared with.
