How do you model 624 without using tens

When I saw your subject line, I thought you might be asking about the French man who helped the Americans in our Revolutionary War.

You could model it by using 20s.

exactly, change number bases. you have 624 in base 10.

In base 5, it would be one less than 10000 or 4444
that is four 125 units, four 25 units, and four five units, and 4 single units

Or you can convert 624 base 10 to binary, or 1001110000

To model the number 624 without using tens, you can break it down into its place value components.

The number 624 can be represented as follows:
- The digit 6 in the hundreds place means we have 6 groups of 100.
- The digit 2 in the tens place means we have 2 groups of 10.
- The digit 4 in the ones place means we have 4 units.

To model 624 without using tens, you would show 6 groups of 100 and 4 units, with no groups of 10. You can use drawings or physical objects to represent this.

For example, if you were using base ten blocks to represent the number, you would place 6 blocks in the hundreds place (each block representing 100) and 4 single blocks in the ones place.

By breaking down the number into its place value components, you can model 624 without using tens.
