I believe that the first 9 (90) is 100 times greater than the second 9 (9000). If you multiply 90 by 10, it will get 900, which is not enough!

Answer: No, the 9,290 is the value of the first 9 hundred times as great as the value of the second 9.

Explanation:

The given number : 9,290

We can see that the first 9 has the place value = 9000 or 9 thousand

The second 9 has the place value = 90 or 9 tens

The number of times the value of the first 9 as great as the value of the second 9 will be :-


(9000)/(90)=100

Hence, the 9,290 is the value of the first 9 hundred times as great as the value of the second 9.
