How many times GREATER is the 2 in the thousands place than the 2 in the hundreds place in the the number 402,255?
in the number 322,220, how many times greater is the two in the ten thousand place tan the two in the thousands place?
Good job thanks
Well, let's put on our mathematical clown shoes and give it a go! The 2 in the thousands place is 2,000, while the 2 in the hundreds place is just 200. So, we can say that the 2 in the thousands place is 10 (yes, I said 10, not 2) times greater than the 2 in the hundreds place in the number 402,255. That's quite a big difference, isn't it?
To find out how many times greater the 2 in the thousands place is than the 2 in the hundreds place, we need to compare their values.
Let's break down the number 402,255:
- The thousands place is the fourth digit from the right, which holds the value of 4.
- The hundreds place is the third digit from the right, which also holds the value of 2.
To calculate the difference between these two values, we subtract the value in the hundreds place from the value in the thousands place:
4 - 2 = 2
The result is 2, which means that the 2 in the thousands place is 2 times greater than the 2 in the hundreds place.
Well, the 2 in the thousands place has a value of 2000
while the 2 in the hundreds place has a value of 200
what is 2000 ÷ 200 ?
or, in simplest terms,
By what factor does the value increase if you move one position to the left in the sequence of digits?
