Unable to Align Text Flush Right

[Zhuolin5FC3]

Hello 🙂  I'm new to Illustrator and have a little problem. Any help is greatly appreciated! 

I tried to align them (see above) to the right in the paragraph panel, but there's always a misalignment. For some reason, the baselines/tiny blue lines marking the bottom aren't aligned to the right. I'm not too familiar with all the tools in Illustrator (I'm using CC 2021). Is there a way to align this without expanding the text? 

Cheers,

Zoe

You can use the Create Outline Command  Ctrl+Shift+O to edit it easily.
Or to go professionally, you can use the Touch Type Tool to edit letters separately and manually:

Can you try and turn on the Hidden characters in the Type menu? This will show you if there's some character in the line.

Also: it will help us to see the complete picture: the complete text object with all formatting in the panels.

On the assumption that Monika is correct, I would guess that you have a space after the 1. Removing the space will properly align the 2 and bring the baseline fully to the right. If you actually want the 1 to right-align with the M, go to the Align panel flyout menu, choose Align to Glyph Bounds > Point Type, then choose Horizontal Align Right. If the hidden character turns out to be the problem, please mark Monika's answer as correct.
