2.47 is different than 24,700 because 2.47 has the decimal placed 3 to the left on 24,700 and 24,700 is greater than 2.47

Answer: Hello!

2.47 is a number between 2 and 3, you can notice it because this number is 2 + 0.47

For the other part, 24,700 is very large number (you can see that this number has a coma, not a decimal point).

in fact, 2.47*10000 = 24,700

then 24,700 is 10000 times the number 2.47.
