question: I have fewer ones than tens. The value of my tens is 30. What two numbers can I be?
If the tens value 30, you have 3 tens so you either have 1 or 2 ones.

32 or 31.
To find the two numbers that satisfy the given information, let's break down the problem step by step:
First, let's represent the number of ones as "x" and the number of tens as "y".
According to the question, you have fewer ones than tens. So, we can write an inequality: x < y.
It's also given that the value of the tens is 30. Since each ten represents a value of 10, we can say that 10y = 30. By dividing both sides of the equation by 10, we find that y = 3.
Now, if we substitute y = 3 into our original inequality, we get x < 3.
Therefore, the possible values for x can be any number from 0 to 2 (including 0 and 2), as long as it is less than 3.
So, the two numbers that satisfy the given conditions can be any pair of numbers where the number of ones (x) is between 0 and 2, and the number of tens (y) is 3. For example, one possible answer could be 21, where x = 1 and y = 3.
