A quality control technician is calibrating a high-precision digital sensor used to measure the thickness of protective coatings. The sensor displays values to four decimal places. To correctly document the calibration results in the technical log, the technician must identify the place values in their proper sequence. Arrange the following decimal place-value names in the correct order, starting from the position immediately to the right of the decimal point and moving further to the right.
