Question

In 33,294 how is the value of the 3 in the ten thousands place related to the value of the 3 in the thousands place ?

Answer 1

the 3 in the ten thousands place is 1/10 times the value of the 3 in the thousands place

Answer 2

The value of the 3 in the ten thousands place is 10 times the value of the 3 in the thousands place.

Explanation:

Let's see the value of each algarism in this number.

33294.

4 is the unit. So the value of the 4 in this number is
`4 * 10^(0)`

9 is the tenth. So the value of the 9 in this number is
`9 * 10^(1) = 90`

2 is the centh. So the value of the 2 in this number is
`2 * 10^(2) = 200`

3 is the thousanth. So the value of the second 3(from the start to the end) in this number is
`3 * 10^(3) = 3000`

3 is also the ten thousanths. So the value of the first 3 is this number is
`3 * 10^(4) = 30000`

So

`33294 = 30000 + 3000 + 200 + 90 + 4`

how is the value of the 3 in the ten thousands place related to the value of the 3 in the thousands place ?

`(3 * 10^(4))/(3 * 10^(3)) = 10`

The value of the 3 in the ten thousands place is 10 times the value of the 3 in the thousands place.
