Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication by 10^8 moves the decimal point 8 places to the right.

Multiplication by 10^8 moves the most significant digit 8 places to the left relative to the decimal point, which may be a more intuitive way to think about it. Moving the most significant digit left one place multipiles its value by 10. You're doing that 8 times. (An exponent is the notation we use for repeated multiplication.)
