You can think of this as moving the decimal place 34 times to the right...a general rule for anything that is in a similar format, X 10^(#), is you move the decimal place either to the left, if the exponent is negative, or to the right, if the exponent is positive. In this case, we have 34, a positive number, so we have to move the decimal place 34 times to the right and continue to add zeros until we reach the desired position.

0.20 --> 2000000000000000000000000000000000.
