To find out how many times greater a digit in the ones millions place is compared to the same digit in the ten thousands place, we need to understand the place value system.
In the place value system, each digit's value is based on its position in a number. Starting from the rightmost digit, the positions are ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, and so on.
For example, in the number 1,234,567, the digit 4 is in the ten thousands place, and the digit 5 is in the ones millions place.
To calculate how many times greater the digit in the ones millions place is compared to the digit in the ten thousands place, we need to divide the value of the digit in the ones millions place by the value of the digit in the ten thousands place.
In this case, the digit in the ones millions place is 5, and the digit in the ten thousands place is 4. Both these digits represent a value.
The value of the digit 5 in the ones millions place is 5,000,000 (5 multiplied by 1,000,000).
The value of the digit 4 in the ten thousands place is 40,000 (4 multiplied by 10,000).
To calculate how many times greater the digit in the ones millions place is compared to the digit in the ten thousands place, we divide the value in the ones millions place by the value in the ten thousands place:
5,000,000 รท 40,000 = 125
Therefore, the digit in the ones millions place is 125 times greater than the same digit in the ten thousands place.
