Question

The value of 5 in 506712 is how many times the value of 5 in 324859

Answer 1

It is 1.55 times the value of the second number. 

Answer 2

The value of 5 in 506712 represents 500,000.

The value of 5 in 324859 represents 50.

You can get that by observing the position of each number. The first 5 is placed as 5 hundred units of a thousand, and the second 5 is placed as tenth.

Now, to know how many does the first number represents of the second number, we just need to divide them

`(500,000)/(50)=10,000`

Therefore, the value of the first 5 represents 10,000 times the value of the second 5.
