Say the number is, IDK, 333.33
The hundredths equals 0.03
The hundreds equals 300
You can divide 300 by 0.3
You get 10000
10000 is the answer

Answer: D. 10,000

Explanation:

Given: A number has the same digit in its hundreds place and its hundredths place.

Let the digit be '1'.

Then , the place value of number's hundreds place = 100

The place value of number's hundredths place = 0.01

Now, the number of times the value of the digit in the hundreds place is greater than the value of the digit in the hundredths place is given by :-


(100)/(0.01)=(100*100)/(1)=10,000 [Insert comma after 3 digits from the right]

Hence, the the value of the digit in the hundreds place is 10,000 times greater than the value of the digit in the hundredths place.
