  1. @purplebear It's pretty simple. If you move x spaces on the acronym you move the decimal x spaces. If you had 5000.0 of a measurement and moved 3 spaces left on the acronym you'd move the decimal three places left, so you'd left with 5.0000 of the new measurement (or alternatively just 5 if you're not using significant digits)
