Answer: A) moves two places to the right
Example:

The positive exponent over the 10 tells us how many places to move to the right. If the exponent was negative, then we'd move to the left. This only works when the base is 10.
In one day there are 24 hours, and each hour there are 60 minutes, so the minute hand makes 24*60=1440 full circles in one day. For each circle, the tip of the minute hand travels the entire circumference, which is 2*pi*r = 2*pi*(6 inches) = 12*pi inches. Multiplying by 1440 circles per day gives a distance of:
17280*pi inches, or 54,287 inches.
(22/7 - 2/3) divided by 2 is less than the value of 22/7 - 2/3
