To solve this problem, let us first understand what does mega meters mean. Now by definition, mega means a factor of one million which is a unit prefix in Metric Systems of units. It is denoted by the unit symbol M.
So for example if we have a mega of something, it means a million of something. So in this case, if we have 1 mega meter, what it means is 1 million meter, which is written as:
1 mega meter = 1,000,000 meter
To show the decimal points:
1.0 mega meter = 1,000,000.0 meter
So we see that the decimal point move 6 zeroes to the right, therefore the direction is to the right.
Answer:
6 places to the right
