Mrs. Karla thank you for your help. but I don't understand your answer. The question is again: Tenecia is thinking of a number with 8 place values. The digit in the thousands place is 5. The digits in the hundred thousands and hundreds place are both an odd number greater than 7. The digit in each other place value is one less than the digit in the thousands place. What is the number?
Thank you for your cooperation
--,---,--- is the way we will write the number. The only odd single-digit number greater than 7 is 9. That goes in two of the places. The thousands place gets a 5.
So we can write the number as
--,9-5,9--. All remaining blank digits have to be 4.
So the number is
44,945,944
To find the number Tenecia is thinking of, we can start by looking at the given information.
The digit in the thousands place is 5. This means that the number has a digit of 5 in the thousands place.
The digits in the hundred thousands and hundreds place are both an odd number greater than 7. This means that the hundred thousands and hundreds place digits are both numbers that are greater than 7 and are odd.
Since these digits are one less than the digit in the thousands place, we can subtract 1 from the digit in the thousands place to find the values for the hundred thousands and hundreds place.
So, the digit in the hundred thousands place would be 5 - 1 = 4 and the digit in the hundreds place would also be 5 - 1 = 4.
Now, we know that the number has a 5 in the thousands place, a 4 in the hundred thousands place, and a 4 in the hundreds place.
For the remaining five place values, we know that each digit is one less than the digit in the thousands place. So, the digit in the ten thousands place would be 5 - 1 = 4, the digit in the thousands place would be 5 - 1 = 4, and so on.
Therefore, the number that Tenecia is thinking of is 44444445.
