Question

Fill in the blanks to solve 6 x 5,000.

6 x 5,000
Step 1. 6 x 5 x __
Step 2. 30 x __
Step 3. __

Answer 1

1: 1,000 2: 1,000 3. 30,000

Explanation:

Step: 1,000 (this is because 5,000 is the same as 5 and 1,000 since 5 x 1,000 is 5,000)

Step 2: 1,000 (Since 5 x 6 is 30 we keep the 1,000 because that is all that's happening)

Step 3: 30,000 (Now all we had to do was multiply 30 and 1,000 which is 30,000 because there are only 4 zeros and 3 x 1 is 3)

Answer 2

30,000

Explanation:

Step 1. 6×5×1000

Step 2. 30×1000

Step 3. 30,000
