Rachel says that in the number 8,891, one 8 is 100 times as great as the other 8. Use your understanding of place value to explain why or why not.

Answer: The first 8 is not 100 times greater than the second 8

Step-by-step explanation: because 8000 divided by 800 is 10 not 100

If you need a complete answer just add the 2 things I said together like this: The first 8 is not 100 times greater than the second 8 because 8000 divided by 800 is 10 not 100.

Hope this helps!
