build my number. the digit in the thousandths place is twice the number in the tenths polace. my hundredths value is an odd number. my total value is more than two dimes but less than 2 quarters.
To build the number based on the given conditions, follow these steps:
1. The digit in the thousandths place is twice the number in the tenths place. Let's consider the digit in the tenths place as 'x.' Therefore, the digit in the thousandths place will be 2x.
2. The hundredths value is an odd number. This means it can be any odd digit from 1 to 9.
3. The total value is more than two dimes but less than 2 quarters. In terms of dollars, this means the total value is more than $0.20 but less than $0.50.
Now, let's combine these conditions:
- Thousandths place: 2x
- Tenths place: x
- Hundredths place: any odd digit from 1 to 9
To satisfy the condition that the total value is more than two dimes but less than 2 quarters, we consider the following:
- Two dimes equal $0.20, so the minimum value of the number would be $0.21.
- Two quarters equal $0.50, so the maximum value of the number would be $0.49.
Combining all of the above conditions, we can represent the number as 0.2x2x, where 'x' is an odd digit from 1 to 9.
For example:
- If 'x' is 1, the number would be 0.212.
- If 'x' is 3, the number would be 0.263.
- If 'x' is 9, the number would be 0.299.
You can choose any odd digit 'x' from 1 to 9 and substitute it into the formula to build your number.
