on the right side of the decimal point is the third spot the 1000th's or is the fourth spot. I have this problem that has the number 1.2k; where do I add the zeros? please help?

kilo is 1000. so if you were talking about meters, for example, 1.2 kilometers would equal 1,200 meters.

1 Kilo is 1000, so your 1.2k is equivalent to 1200!

kilo = 1000, but in computers, it's 1024. And yes, it's the third spot. The fourth spot is 10,000.

1.2kg is equal to 1200
and when the decimal point is in the 1000ths its 3 places back because theres 3 zeros

Where you see k (kilo)
do multipilication of 1000 with the number!
that is!
1.2 k = 1.2x1000= 1200
