Yup!  The 6 in 26.495 is in the ones place, whereas the 6 in 17.64 is in the tenths place.  One is equal to ten tenths, so the ones place has ten times the value.  Thus, the statement is true.

Yes because if you multiply 0.6 by 10, it would equal 6. So yes, the 6 in 26.495 IS 10 times the value of the 6 in 17.64.
